hi all,
i've configured multipath on a linux box and i'm getting these messages on
syslog:
May 30 10:50:05 mail-1 udevd-work[25148]: rename(/dev/disk/by-
id/wwn-0x6006016052b022002e770b609680e011.udev-tmp, /dev/disk/by-
id/wwn-0x6006016052b022002e770b609680e011) failed: No such file or directory
and sometimes after a path failure, the different paths get different scsi
names, /proc/partitions shows in that case:
8 16 838860800 sdb
8 32 849582720 sdc
8 80 838860800 sdf
8 96 849582720 sdg
252 3 849582720 dm-3
252 4 838860800 dm-4
8 208 838860800 sdn
8 224 849582720 sdo
65 0 849582720 sdq
8 240 838860800 sdp
and then multipath gets crazy:
May 25 12:26:51 mail-1 multipathd: sdh: emc_clariion_checker: sending query
command failed
...
i guess i should tell udev to asign persistant names using uuid? what's the
right way to address this problem?
this is my config:
