What has changed in RHEL 8's multipath defaults compared to RHEL 7?

Issue

  • What are some of the important changes within RHEL 8's multipath default settings vs RHEL7?
  • Why can't I change the hardware_handler in a custom device clause even when the retrain_attribute_hw_handler is set to "no"?
  • Why does multipath ignore the configured hardware handler?
