Control the names of the gmultipathed devices over iscsi

[spiros]

Hi all,

I have a freenas using storage from a few old IOMEGA-EMC IX12-300 NAS storages. The connection to the NASes is over iscsi using many paths.
FreeNAS discovers the LUNs from the NASes and creates multipath devices for them (multipath/diskxx).
I would like to give my own names to these multipathed devices, in order to have an easy way to tell which NAS corresponds to which multipath device.
I am looking for functionality similar to multipathd of linux where you can set the name of the device based on UUID.

Thanx,
Spiros

Did you find a solution for this?

I've not do it with iscsi LUNs but I do use gmultipath to name my multipathed SAS disks.

gmultipath destroy diskxxx

gmultipath label -v FRED /dev/da0 /dev/da1
