Hi,

multipath seems to work on gentoo, I have to load the modules in proper
order, this is my configuration:

cat /etc/conf.d/local.start
# /etc/conf.d/local.start

# This is a good place to load any misc programs
# on startup ( use 1>&2 to hide output)
/sbin/modprobe dm-emc
/sbin/modprobe qla2300
/bin/sleep 5
/sbin/udevstart
/etc/init.d/multipathd start

is critical the command udevstart without only one path is seen,

I experienced a kernel oops with kernel-2.6.12 (both vanilla-sources and
gentoo-sources) when I load qla2300 module, here are the logs:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

however kernel-2.6.13 works fine (both vanilla and gentoo-sources)

}

The tests aren't very accurate because the machine is 100 Km away,
tomorrow I'll do more accurate tests, I'll post results,

big thanks to Cristophe for multipath-tools,
big thanks to gistolero for his accurate testing on gentoo, your posts
are very useful for me,

any suggestions to improve my setup are welcome,

I have to install naviagent? On redhat naviagent register powerpath name
to cx 300, it works with multipath?

Nicola

P.S. for gistolero, I haven't your problem with multipathd (or so seems)
however my hardware is different, I think also that the need to run
udevstart is a gentoo bug, today gentoo has releases udev-0.68-r1 with
start-stop script, if you read start script there is udevstart, however
I haven't yet tested this script because they require unstable
baselayout-1.12

The tests aren't very accurate because the machine is 100 Km away,
tomorrow I'll do more accurate tests, I'll post results,<br>
<br>
big thanks to Cristophe for multipath-tools,<br>
big thanks to gistolero for his accurate testing on gentoo, your posts
are very useful for me,<br>
<br>
any suggestions to improve my setup are welcome,<br>
<br>
I have to install naviagent? On redhat naviagent register powerpath
name to cx 300, it works with multipath?<br>
<br>
Nicola<br>
<br>
P.S. for gistolero, I haven't your problem with multipathd (or so
seems) however my hardware is different, I think also that the need to
run udevstart is a gentoo bug, today gentoo has releases udev-0.68-r1
with start-stop script, if you read start script there is udevstart,
however I haven't yet tested this script because they require unstable
baselayout-1.12<br>
