When trying to use failover via plugging out some cable or using qlogics sansurfer to set an alternate path, there seem to be no errors, but everything works extremly slow and does not recover. This was used with driver 6.0b23 as from suse kernel 2.4.18. When trying 6.1b2 or b5 the disks get recognized as multiple scsi-disks, is this wanted for use with md multipath personality ? Is there a way to enable previos behavior ? Please reply also to me directly. Thanks Oktay Akbal ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

You can edit the qla_settings.h file and set MPIO_SUPPORT to 1 or I believe if you use the qla2x00src-v6.1b5-fo archive that this should already be set to 1. -Mike -- Michael Anderson andmike@us.ibm.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Thank you, I will try at Monday. It is set to 0 in b5. But my archive is named: qla2x00src-v6.1b5.tgz -fo seems to come only from enabling MPIO ?

Thus, multipathing support can be enabled with standard package.
