disable and stopping multipathing on Linux
by rmustafa from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5DA2K)
We have a azure migration coming in , in order to migrate from linux to azure system they would like us to stop multipathing on Linux.
So the question is
how can we disable multipathing ?
what effect it would have on the production linux server ?
I saw "multipath -ll" giving output of 6 mpath, should I use "multipath -f mpatha" and so on so forth ??
or should use "multipath -F" ?? to disable all the devices at once ?
Or let me know if there is a proper procedure to achieve this task ??
Is it possible to make a change with out taking downtime ??
Thanks
