Hi All,

I'm having problems to put the Multipathing tools to work correctly with
NetApp Cluster Solution.

I have a xenpool with 3 machines the multipathing are enabled on them, the
HBA are Qlogic, two FAS3140 controllers in Cluster. I created a lun to be a
storage repository (SR), the lun is visible and was recognized on the 3
machines, but when we say to the XenServer to build a SR with this Lun, all
I/O operations arrive to the FAS3140 by the non-optimized path.

*XenServer multipath.conf*

defaults {
        user_friendly_names no
}
devices {
        device {
                vendor                  "NETAPP"
                product                 "LUN"
                path_grouping_policy    group_by_prio
                getuid_callout          "/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -s /block/%n"
                prio_callout            "/sbin/mpath_prio_netapp /dev/%n"
                features                "1 queue_if_no_path"
                path_checker            directio
                failback                immediate
        }
}

We made two tests, one with prio_callout as /sbin/mpath_prio_alua and other
with prio_callout as /sbin/mpath_prio_netapp, both returns the same results.

When we have an I/O operation, more than 50% arrives to the storage
controller by the Partner interface.

        ALUA: Yes

The ALUA was configured at the igroup.

We made another test putting a Windows machine with NetApp DSM(Multipathing
software) and everything works fine.

Anyone could help me?

Rgds,
