Hi Fabrizio,

That didn't work very well in my tests. I'd be really interested in
hearing from you if you have had any success using it with Oracle DBs
(possibly when many LUNs are used with ASM or for raw access).

Cheers,
L.

Hi Luca,
not many chances for a multipath there. 

But you can rely on the failover capabilities of qlogic driver.

Not many changes are necessary.
