Subject: [PATCH 36/42] Clarify dev_loss_tmo capping in multipath.conf.5
Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2013 14:54:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1357653259-62650-37-git-send-email-hare@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1357653259-62650-1-git-send-email-hare@suse.de>
The linux kernel will not allow any dev_loss_tmo setting larger
than 300 if fast_io_fail is not set. So we should document this
in the manpage.
