It (hotplug option) is not documented in SLEs10 (documented in OpenSuSe
iSCSI document), and it works with iSCSI in simple cases only.
Unfortunately (because SLES10 don't support iSCSI multiport) we can't run
simple case anymore, and when we run lvm over multipath over iscsi, it
(hotplug) do not work.
Just in contrast, it do work in RHEL4 (mount with _netdev over lvm over
multipath), _out of the box_.
In addition, you can't align services with this hotplug option (say, oracle
starts only when iSCSI mounts al disks).
Both options are required. Hotplug is good for removable media, while
_netdev is good for network media. Or, again,D-O-C-U-M-E-N-T changes and
align services properly.
So, it's one more hack in SLES10.
