I think we can do this. multiptha -l tells you what disks are combined to form a mapper path. Then you can use iostat to check I/O stats of each disk along with each mapper. It won't be hard to write a shell script to re-print the lines of iostat nicely, grouping the lines of the disks under their respective mapper path.
