Hi Andreas,
I just checked out my local system and it's returning a regular device name
(/dev/sdh, or /dev/sdi, depending on the label) and a unique UUID, but then
I didn't enable multipath when I built the FS.
If I avoid using the /dev name, is it still possible to build failover
properly if I'm not using the multi-path framework? If it's not, is a
rebuild of the filesystem required in order to enable multi-path support?
Sorry to keep firing questions at you, I'm trying to make sure I've got all
the bases covered for failover.
thanks again,
Klaus
