Avoid udev rules

Are you like me and hate setting permissions with outside scripts on dm-multipath devices? Best way to avoid this mess (and udev rules to boot) is to include the following on your multipath.conf device:
 
 
 

multipath {
    wwid 360a98000486e58526c34515944703277
    alias devicename
    mode 660
    uid 501
    gid 502
}

What's great about this is when DM-multipath instantiates the new mapper devices, they will all be set with the permissions, user, and group assignments that you want. No muss, no fuss!

Enjoy!
