[dm-devel] Configuring multipath for root device

[Pradipmaya Maharana]

RHEL Steps worked perfectly for me but i have a question for SLES installation.

Question. While installing SLES on multipath devices, the second step says:

" 2. Complete the installation. Let the system boot up in multiuser mode.
Make sure the root device, swap device are all referenced by their by-id
device node entries instead of /dev/sd* type names. If they are not, fix
them first."

How do you check that root device and swap device are referenced by their by-id?
And if it is not referenced by the by-id, how do I fix it? Re-install?

Thanks and Regards,
Pradipmaya.
