Restarting Multipathing
If your multipath configuration changes, you may need to restart multipathing, as in this example:
# multipathd -k
multipathd> reconfigure
ok
multipathd> show config
multipathd> exit
When using the show config command, you will need to search through the output and make sure it
matches what was entered in
/etc/multipath.conf
.
If the restart is not successful, you can try the following commands:
# multipath -F
# service multipathd stop
# service multipathd start
// confirm the new settings are used for existing multipath devices
# multipath –ll
