4.2.4. Blacklist Exceptions
4.2.4. Blacklist Exceptions You can use the blacklist_exceptions section of the configuration file to enable multipathing on devices that have been blacklisted by default. For example, if you have a large number of devices and want to multipath only one of them (with the WWID of 3600d0230000000000e13955cc3757803), instead of individually blacklisting each of the devices except the one you want, you could instead blacklist all of them, and then allow only the one you want by adding the following lines to the /etc/multipath.conf file. When specifying devices in the blacklist_exceptions section of the configuration file, you must specify the exceptions in the same way they were specified in the blacklist. For example, a WWID exception will not apply to devices specified by a devnode blacklist entry, even if the blacklisted device is associated with that WWID. Similarly, devnode exceptions apply only to devnode entries, and device exceptions apply only to device entries.
blacklist { wwid "*" } blacklist_exceptions { wwid "3600d0230000000000e13955cc3757803" }
