boot lun ignored by multipath

sshameedSep 25 2013 — edited Sep 25 2013

Hi,

I have successfully upgraded ovm server from 3.2.3 to 3.2.6, boot disk is on SAN multipath LUN. To do the upgrade I did

blacklist of boot lun from multipath configuration. Then I completed upgrade. Now I am using /dev/sda (non multipath device)

for boot lun. Multipath is ignoring boot lun and /dev/mapper device files for multipath LUN doesn't exist. I need to do some

tweaking in multipath configuration file to bring it back to multipath configuration.

[root@mkmovmbl9 ~]# multipath

multipath -l doesn't show boot lun.
