Blech - I meant "multipath" blocks, not "device" blocks, e.g., putting something like this into multipath.conf: multipaths { multipath { wwid 360060480000190102501530123456789 alias mpath0 } multipath { wwid 360060480000190102501530123456799 alias mpath1 } } Kind regards, Bryn. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHD3aW6YSQoMYUY94RArcjAJ9H7fPbMfoaCK+v0HlVISrF8lLhnwCg1FTB goQimrLbcWfNoh526bkEyGo= =ynBE -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
