There was a path problem with RHEL 7.4 on server superdome x:
Jul 26 02:47:49 ictasstgdb01 kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: alua: Detached
Jul 26 02:47:49 ictasstgdb01 kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Synchronizing SCSI cache
Jul 26 02:47:49 ictasstgdb01 kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Synchronize Cache(10) failed: Result: hostbyte=DID_NO_CONNECT driverbyte=DRIVER_OK
Jul 26 02:47:49 ictasstgdb01 multipathd: sda: remove path (uevent)
So Linux engineer recommended customer needs to change from hardware_handler "0" to hardware_handler "1 alua" :
# cat /etc/multipath.conf
defaults {
find_multipaths yes
user_friendly_names yes
}
devices {
device{
vendor "HP"
product "MSA 2040 SAN"
path_grouping_policy group_by_prio
path_selector "round-robin 0"
path_checker tur
hardware_handler "0" -> hardware_handler "1 alua"
failback immediate
rr_weight uniform
rr_min_io_rq 1
no_path_retry 3
I tried to find document related with that but I can't.
Can we change the parameter as linux engineer said ?
