The package version is: root@lion01:~# dpkg -l|grep multipath ii multipath-tools 0.9.4-5ubuntu8 arm64 maintain multipath block device access The fact that support is missing can be seen in the output of the "multipath -t" command: root@lion01:~# multipath -t | grep MSA product "(MSA|HSV)1[01]0" product "MSA VOLUME" product "(MSA2[02]12fc|MSA2012i)" product "(MSA2012sa|MSA23(12|24)(fc|i|sa)|MSA2000s VOLUME)" product "MSA [12]0[456]0 (SAN|SAS|FC|iSCSI)" The needed support is in the current upstream multipath-tools version 0.11.1. The specific commit for this support is c0cf3cb94d7d and probably can be backported to the version in Ubuntu without updating the entire multipath-tools package.
