Environment
Novell Open Enterprise Server 2 (OES 2) Linux Support Pack 3
Multipathing configured to use aliases instead of the WWID of the storage devices.
Multipathing configured to use aliases instead of the WWID of the storage devices.
Situation
When trying to create a new pool through NSSMU a 20403
error is returned.
Resolution
If multipathing is configured to use aliases, the device alias and the pool name cannot be
the same. The 20403 error is a result of attempting to use a
name that is already in use. Either use a different pool name
or change the alias being used in the multipath.conf file and the
pool should create without problem.
