The request about integrating the configuration of HUAWEI storage into the device-mapper-multipath software

Dear:
       I am a storage system integration engineer of HUAWEI.
       Our work is to make sure HUAWEI storage can work well with other IT hardware & Software.

We have verified the compatibility between storage system and many Linux OS.
When we communicate with the engineers from these Linxu OS vendor, we find many of them get the multipath software from  http://christophe.varoqui.free.fr/.

     We check the latest multipath software released by this website, and find HUAWEI Storage system is not included in its default configuration.
    We have communicated with REDHAT before, and they have agreed to add HUAWEI storage system information in REDHAT default configuration. You can find the detail information in the following address: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1333331

We hope the information of HUAWEI Storage system can also be included in the default configuration of multipath software from  http://christophe.varoqui.free.fr/..
     Could you please tell me how to do it?

     Looking forward to your reply.
     Thanks very much.

Hi,

The homepage now encourages users to fetch tarballs directly from git :
either HEAD or tagged versions.

The upstream git repo has HUAWEI devices since:

commit b9c1926846fac72a4d702f307721b11033f04e00
Author: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com>
Date:   Tue May 31 18:16:49 2016 -0500

    libmultipath: add Huawei Storage default config

    Add a default device config for the Huawei XSG1 arrary. This config
    comes from Huawei.

    Signed-off-by: Benjamin Marzinski <bmarzins@redhat.com>


For future work on the HUAWEI devices settings, just contribute to the
upstream projet directly or via a distributor. You can also propose a patch
to designate a maintainer for these device settings.

Best regards,
Christophe Varoqui
