Has the ECKD dasd device driver in SLES11/Redhat 5.4 changed to provide
muiltipathing vs multipath?

This is just the new format for output from lsdasd.  It is now
PAV-aware, so it knows that (in this example) disks 206 and 207 are
aliases.  You can still use these devices (base+alias) in a multipath,
using the device-mapper-multipath package.  As a reminder, for RHEL this
procedure is outlined here:
