Hi,
I have been running IOZONE tests to 32 LVM volumes with ext2
filesystems on them. I am using a Sles11 SP4 guest on z/VM 6.3. I keep seeing
unusable path messages in /var/log/messages from Multipathd. However I don't
see any path faults or any other messages indicating problems. Does anyone have
any idea what these messages mean? Internet searches have yielded little. I
appreciate any help.
