Hello, I'm trying to get the best storage possible using fiber-channel SAN. With Multipath, I'm able to get the SAN appear as disk on my nodes, and I'm able to create a PV/VG on it. So I have now a Shared storage based on LVM, on my SAN, available on all my nodes. The only issue I get, is...

Hi All, I am fairly new to this, so it might be a simple issue. I have node that I have presented storage to from a SAN using FC. I have installed multipathing on the node, but if I run 'lsblk', I see multiple entries for my two LUNs. Is there something I am missing? I have attached screenshots...
