DM-Multipath Failing Path Timeout Formula

Latest response

Hi,
Is there any formula to calculating timeout for marking failed path by DM-Multipath?
Also how can we reduce the time and force multipath to switch on another path group?

Responses

What values are recommended when the disks have been added to Oracle ASM?

The multipath timeout would have to be less than the ASM timeout, so that multipath tries to fail over quicker than ASM detects a failure.

You might want to contact Oracle Support to see if they have any specific recommendations?
