[pve-devel] [PATCHv2] Add support for multipath-backed direct attached storage

[Dmitry Petuhov]

Yes, deleting multipath dev itself is just another command ``multipath 
-f $dev'' after (or better before) scsi devices deletion.

iSCSI is cool, but I don't want to be bound to it because I have also 
SAS and FC storages, so multipath is the only option.

So question about way to run code on all nodes is still open. Maybe get 
node list from PVE and just run what we need over ssh? Or there's some 
special API?
