4.2. Configuration File Blacklist
The blacklist section of the multipath configuration file specifies the devices that will not be used when the system configures multipath devices. Devices that are blacklisted will not be grouped into a multipath device.
• If you do need to blacklist devices, you can do so according to the following criteria:
• By WWID, as described Blacklisting By WWID [p. 87]
• By device name, as described in Blacklisting By Device Name [p. 87]
• By device type, as described in Blacklisting By Device Type [p. 88]
By default, a variety of device types are blacklisted, even after you comment out the initial blacklist section of the configuration file. For information, see Blacklisting By Device Name [p. 87]
