  • multipathd drops paths of a temporarily lost device

    Posted on

    After a temporary loss of any of the access path to the SAN, the path of the devices are deleted. The only way to recover is to reboot the server. This record is a problem for me. My operating system is RHEL 7.1

    [root@host:/usr/sbin]# rpm -qa |grep -i multipath
    device-mapper-multipath-libs-0.4.9-77.el7.x86_64
    multipath-tools-0.4.9-7.7.x86_64
    device-mapper-multipath-0.4.9-77.el7.x86_64

    multipath.conf

    device {
    vendor "3PARdata"
    product "VV"
    path_grouping_policy "group_by_prio"
    uid_attribute "ID_SERIAL"
    path_selector "round-robin 0"
    path_checker tur
    features "0"
    hardware_handler "1 alua"
    prio "alua"
    failback "immediate"
    rr_weight "uniform"
    no_path_retry 9
    rr_min_io_rq 1
    detect_prio yes
    }
