#1315 PR merged: Multipath device mapping

Labels: enhancement, fixed / solved / done

schabrolles opened issue at 2017-04-17 14:41:

Creating a set of rules based on OS type (RedHat, Suse) to set the suffix used between multipath disk name and partition number:

  • RHEL < 7 => p
  • RHEL >= 7 => ""
  • SUSE < 12 => _part
  • SUSE > 12 => -part

Can easily be updated with other Linux distro

@schabrolles See also #1302 - is this covered as well?

@gdha #1302 is currently not covered by this pull request.
I only cover the specificities of device in /dev/mapper

I had a look to #1302, I think it should be ok as eMMC or NVMe are not multipathed.

@schabrolles As no-one objects we approve this pull request. Thank you for your nice contribution that I wanted to do 4 years ago, but the sponsor dropped off and so did I.
