Ben,

We are starting to use dm-multipath in RHEL 4 U2 and documentation is
sorely lacking.  I've opened IT 81946, but my TAM said it came in too
late for U3.  Any doc updates you can provide around the proper usage of
"dm-emc" or "1 emc" hardware_handler as well as expounding on the docs
around path_checker of tur vs. readsector0.  The vendor-specific
path_checkers like "emc_clariion" are not documented inside the dm-
multipath RPM; only by searching the archives on this mailing list is it
found.

Thanks.
