I have recently learned that its dangerous to use /dev/dm-x devices for LVM 
because they do not function correctly with multipath, and that you should 
always use the /dev/mapper/mpathx devices.  Something about the fact that udev 
actually destroys and recreates the dm devices when paths change.

But, qdisk seems to prefer using dm-x devices.  Is there a way to get it to 
prefer using /dev/mapper/mpathx devices if they are available?

I know you can spec the device instead of the label, but I would like to avoid 
that.
