Aha, well, thanks for replying. The fun thing is that I have a situation
where two different luns in the same configuration are acting different.
I just created a case at NetApp, (no. 2005131664). Let's see what happens!
Our multipath.conf is pretty simple by the way:
defaults {
path_grouping_policy multibus
rr_min_io 1000
failback immediate
no_path_retry queue
user_friendly_names yes
}
# be explicit about what to multipath, prevent local disks and
# crap to be inserted into multipath/bindings
blacklist {
device {
vendor "*"
product "*"
}
}
blacklist_exceptions {
device {
vendor "NETAPP"
product "LUN"
}
}
