SnapSAN S3000/S5000 Path Manager Linux User Guide
The assignment of PathManager devices may be changed by initialization.
If the new assignment is different from the backup file of /etc/sps.conf, put the "device:" lines
in correct order and reboot the system.
Concretely, the assignment may be changed in following cases:
• The order of disks (LUNs) detected by OS is different from the one when configuration
file was created last time. (Because of a expansion of disk array unit, or
adding/deleting LUNs, etc.)
• In previous setting, the assignment of PathManager devices is changed on purpose
after auto configuration.
Log Information
System Log
If an event such as a path fault occurs during issuance of an I/O request, the PathManager
driver outputs a message to the system log. The path patrol daemon refers to the message
and directs the PathManager driver to execute auto repair and the other processing.
