Hi Jerry, I am attempting a similar project. I'm trying to use an EMC DMX SCSI box attached to my zLinux guests. I attach (or DEDICATE) an FCP subchannel (an IODEVICE) to a zLinux guest for each physical path I want. We are not going thru a fabric switch but using point to point cabling. (I can't use any of the discovery tools.) I was able to get multipathing working, I believe, using DM-MPIO. My challenge is getting LVM2 working in a multipath environment. The /etc/multipath.conf and /etc/lvm/lvm.conf files have to be configured correctly. Anybody out there doing this?

What should the directory entry for the device be ? Special or Dedicate ? Currently all I do is attach ea42 to linux1 from the appropriate VM account.
