Chapter 9 Setting Up the Multipath Configuration

9.1 Enabling MPxIO

Enable MPxIO.

Check the [mpxio-disable="no"] line in the "/kernel/drv/iscsi.conf" file.

Change the parameter to "no" when "yes" is set.

Example for changing the "/kernel/drv/iscsi.conf" file:

9.2 Reconfiguring and Restarting the Server

Reconfigure and restart the server to effect the new settings.

Use the "format" command to check the MPxIO multipath status after multipathing is set up.

For the iSCSI LAN (used to transfer data), do not set multipath

configuration with IP Network Multipathing (IPMP).

When configuring the multipath, use MPxIO in the same way as FC-SAN is

used for configuration.

# To globally enable MPxIO on all iscsi ports set:

# mpxio-disable="no";

# To globally disable MPxIO on all iscsi ports set:

# mpxio-disable="yes";

mpxio-disable="no"; <- Check that no is set.

# touch /reconfigure

# /usr/sbin/shutdown -y -g0 -i6
