Enabling Multipath
Perform the following actions to enable multipath.
1. Invoke the multipath command for any name changes to be effective.
# chkconfig multipathd on
2. Verify that the multipathd daemon is enabled. The following output shows it turned on for
run-level 3 and 5. Enable it appropriately for your configuration:
# chkconfig --list multipathd
multipathd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
3. Check that the appropriate rc scripts have been created for each run level. The start number(s)
may not match those shown here.
# ls /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S*multi*
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S08multipathd
# ls /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S*multi*
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S01boot.multipath
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S08multipathd
4. Reboot the system.
