Linux multipath与SCSI ID
Scsi_id命令包含在udev程序包中，可以在multipath.conf中配置该程序来获取scsi设备的SCSI ID。通过SCSI ID，便可以判断多个路径对应了同一设备。这个是多路径实现的关键。scsi_id是通过sg驱动，向设备发送EVPD page80或page83 的inquery命令来查询scsi设备的标识。但一些设备并不支持EVPD 的inquery命令，所以他们无法被用来生成multipath设备。如果这样，据说可以手工改写scsi_id，为不能提供scsi设备标识的设备虚拟一个标识符，并输出到标准输出，但是改写SCSI ID的方法不详。
multipath程序在创建multipath设备时，会调用scsi_id，从其标准输出中获得该设备的scsi id。
