Sorry - accidentally sent this before I was done. The multipath manual
can be found here (for RHEL5.2):

http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.2/html/DM_Mu
ltipath/index.html 

Also, I found some interesting info on using the /sys filesystem for
managing the disks in this IBM manual:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dsichelp/ds8000ic/index.jsp?top
ic=/com.ibm.storage.ssic.help.doc/f2c_intllndynsan_2hsag7.html

Although its not all correct for RHEL5...

I was able to get our systems on the SAN with minimal headaches with
these 2 docs.

If you are going to have multiple paths to the SAN, you read the DM

We are in the process of connecting a number of RHEL 5 servers to a 
Brocade 5000 fiber switch, which will connect these same servers to a
SAN.

Anyone have any experience with such an effort.  Pointers to docs would 
be great.  Google's not been terribly helpful. :(
