1.5. DM Multipath Setup Overview
DM Multipath includes compiled-in default settings that are suitable for common multipath configurations. The basic procedure for configuring your system with DM Multipath is as follows:
- Install the
device-mapper-multipath
rpm. - Create the configuration file and enable multipathing with the
mpathconf
command. You can also start the multipath daemon with this command if you do not need to edit the configuration file. - If necessary, edit the
multipath.conf
configuration file to modify default values and save the updated file. - Start the multipath daemon.
For detailed setup instructions for multipath configuration see 第 3 章 Setting Up DM Multipath.
