I just made my way into this page: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/s390-multi-install-guide/s1-s390info-raid.html and have setup the multipathing nicely. However, I went into the second node (this is 2 nodes failover cluster environment) and I noticed that the vg and the md0 appeared there there automatically! is this normal? is there anything I should do?
