Re: UDEV with DM-MULTIPATH issue in RHEL 5.1....

[Dharmesh Kamdar <kamdard71@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. But since the "dm-X" is NOT
persistent, Red Hat recommends NOT to use that and
recommends to use /dev/mapper/mpathX instead as per
this article
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_96_11196.shtm

But specifying /dev/mapper/<ALIAS> did not work for
us.

Regards,
Dharmesh.
