How can multipath device names be consistent across multiple systems (or across cluster nodes)?
Issue
- We have multiple systems using shared devices.
- The path devices are configured using device-mapper-multipath.
- We need the names for the multipath devices to be the same on all systems.
- Why we need also sync bindings file on all cluster members. Is it distributing multipath.conf is not enough?
- Consistent Multipath Device Names in a Cluster
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (all)
- Shared storage
- Use of device-mapper-multipath
