1.2. Storage Array Support
By default, DM-Multipath includes support for the most common storage arrays that support DM-
Multipath. The supported devices can be found in the m ultipath.conf.defaults file. If your storage
array supports DM-Multipath and is not configured by default in this file, you may need to add them to the
DM-Multipath configuration file, m ultipath.conf. For information on the DM-Multipath configuration
file, see Chapter 4, The DM-Multipath Configuration File.
Some storage arrays require special handling of I/O errors and path switching. T hese require separate
hardware handler kernel modules.
1.3. DM-Multipath Components
Table 1.1, “DM-Multipath Components”. describes the components of DM-Multipath.
