Thank you for the info.

See my previous note on multipath for setting up 2 or more paths to the same Lun and I/O load balancing. Using multipath-tools or EVMS will allow you to set more then one path to a Lun and it will do I/O load balancing. I think I read that it will monitor if a path fails and drop or swap that path for another defined path ? If anyone has a better understanding of the benefits of multipath-tool with LVM please correct me. Thanks ......

What do the multipath-tools buy you? -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terry Spaulding Sent: Wednesday, June 07, 2006 7:31 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Implementing zFCP & Multipathing on existing SLES9 SP3 with ECKD/LVM ... In my case I am using multipath-tools on SLES9 SP3. Is there a .conf for multipath-tools ? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Regards, Terry L.
