      Feature, enhancement:
      The builtin configuration for the Infinidat Infinibox storage array has been updated to the most recent recommendations
      Reason:
      To make the multipath defaults match Infindat's latest recommendations
      Result:
      Multipath devices using Infinidat Infinibox arrays will handle path selection and IO queueing differently than in the past.

      I was requested by the support specialist to raise this ticket to Red Hat Engineering team.

      We are asking to update the Infinidat storage array device stanza in the /etc/multipath.conf to the following one :
      device {
      vendor "NFINIDAT"
      product "InfiniBox"
      path_grouping_policy "group_by_prio"
      path_checker "tur"
      features 0
      hardware_handler "1 alua"
      prio "alua"
      rr_weight "priorities"
      no_path_retry "queue"
      rr_min_io 1
      rr_min_io_rq 1
      flush_on_last_del "yes"
      fast_io_fail_tmo 15
      dev_loss_tmo "infinity"
      path_selector "service-time 0"
      failback "immediate"
      detect_prio "no"
      user_friendly_names "no"
      }
       

      Please update the default configuration in RHEL version: 8, 9, and 10.
