I'm testing multipath with iscsi now, and having the multipath infrastructure present means that the actual iscsi device is unusable, you have to go through the multipath device node. This makes perfect sense exact that pacemaker wants to mount the filesystem before multipath has created the device node. I notice there is a Delay agent, but that seems like a bit of a hack - how much of a delay is enough, without waiting unnecessarily long? Any suggestions? This is a followup to my nfs or ocfs2 question... it turns out that nfs failover doesn't work that smoothly due to hanging tcp connections and holding the block device open so I've gone with ocfs2. Thanks James
