options ipv6 disable=1

dm-multipath is a great tool. Its abilities were proven to me on many occasions, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. NetApp, for example, use it. HP use it as well (a slightly modified version, and still), and it works. A problem I have encountered is as follow – if a single path fails,…
