device-mapper-multipath

[URZ- AG]

Hi,

I would like to ask if somebody knows when Redhat is going to merge the 
different dm-multipath patches into their device-mapper-multipath package.
A while ago I've figured out a bug with C. Varoqui, he made a patch 
which worked, but after several weeks the patch is still not included 
into the latest RH4 version.
I will need this latest version since multipath will not get the right 
size of the volume.
Should I use a self build version? In that case for what do I pay licenses?

Thanks for any comment / remark / hint
Arsène

Hello Christophe,

Thanks for your reply, but I'm not used to deal with that kind of 
reference / commit.
Is there a place where can look for more Information about this commit? 

Thanks & regards,
Arsène

Hi,

Many thanks for the informations, I knew already that Christophe 
committed this patch (great Job) since a while ago. But I would like to 
know if somebody knows when Redhat is going to update his 
device-mapper-multiptah rpm package so it will include this patch?
The latest RHL4.3 still contains version 0.4.5 of 
device-mapper-multipath. If I do install a self compiled multipath-tools 
(git) including the latest patches/updates it may break the update 
process from Redhat.

regards,
Arsène
