Changing multpath conf is not supported, since this file is managed by
VDSM.
It should work well for the oVirt use case. Configuration should be changed
via the manager if needed and not via the conf.

Hello, oVirt guru's !
I installed oVirt 4.0 on several servers HP ProLiant DL360 G5 with
QLogic/Emulex 4G dual-port HBAs.
These servers have multipath connection to the storage system HP 3PAR 7200.
Before installing oVirt to servers I set up the configuration file
/etc/multipath.conf according to the vendor recommendations from document
"HPE 3PAR Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Oracle Linux Implementation Guide
(emr_na-c04448818-9.pdf)"
https://blog.it-kb.ru/2016/06/12/configuring-device-mapper-
multipathing-dm-multipat-mpio-in-centos-linux-7-2-with-
emulex-and-qlogic-fc-hba-connecting-over-san-storage-
hp-3par-7200-3par-os-3-2-2/
Before installing oVirt my multipath.conf was the:
---> start of /etc/multipath.conf <-----
defaults {
polling_interval 10
user_friendly_names no
find_multipaths yes
}
blacklist {
devnode "^cciss\/c[0-9]d[0-9]*"
}
multipaths {
multipath {
wwid 360002ac000000000000000160000cec9
alias 3par-vv2
}
multipath {
wwid 360002ac000000000000000170000cec9
alias 3par-vv1
}
}
devices {
device {
vendor "3PARdata"
product "VV"
path_grouping_policy group_by_prio
path_selector "round-robin 0"
path_checker tur
features "0"
hardware_handler "1 alua"
prio alua
failback immediate
rr_weight uniform
no_path_retry 18
rr_min_io_rq 1
detect_prio yes
}
}
---> end of /etc/multipath.conf <-----
But after installing oVirt file multipath.conf has changed to:
---> start of /etc/multipath.conf <-----
defaults {
polling_interval 5
no_path_retry fail
user_friendly_names no
flush_on_last_del yes
fast_io_fail_tmo 5
dev_loss_tmo 30
max_fds 4096
}
devices {
device {
all_devs yes
no_path_retry fail
}
}
---> end of /etc/multipath.conf <-----
Now I'm not sure that this configuration is optimal. What do you advise?
