Hi Nir,
Thanks very much for your feedback. It's really useful information. I keep my fingers crossed it leads to a solution for us.
All the settings we currently have were to try and optimise the Equallogic for Linux and Ovirt.
The multipath config settings came from this Dell Forum thread re: getting EqualLogic to work with Ovirt http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/storage/f/3775/t/19529606
The udev settings were from the Dell Optimizing SAN Environment for Linux Guide here: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0ahUKEwiXvJes4L7RAhXLAsAKHVWLDyQQFggiMAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.community.dell.com%2Fdell-groups%2Fdtcmedia%2Fm%2Fmediagallery%2F20371245%2Fdownload&usg=AFQjCNG0J8uWEb90m-BwCH_nZJ8lEB3lFA&bvm=bv.144224172,d.d24&cad=rja
Perhaps some of the settings are now conflicting with Ovirt best practice as you optimise the releases.
As requested, here is the output of multipath -ll
