how to create mpath1 file without server reboot?

Sys55 · ‎07-25-2011

Hellow forum,

Which command on linux is used to create the /dev/mapper/mpath1 file?

I have connected the linux server (RH el5.4) to the eva with 2 fiber, and installed the HP device mapper.
However I have notice that only after reboot the /dev/mapper/mpath1 file is created. ( I repeated the test several times and the multipath is working fine)

Is there a way to create the mpath1 file without rebooting the server?

Thank you.
