>=20

That's what I thought based on the output you posted earlier. You need=20
to put this in multipath.conf instead of the values you currently have=20
("DELL"/"MD3000i" which are not correct for this hardware) but you=20
also need to resolve the issue of whether you want to use=20
device-mapper or MPP multipathing - the /etc/multipath.conf file is=20
only used by the device-mapper multipath tools.
