Description Ben Marzinski 2016-07-06 22:18:41 UTC
Upstream multipath-tools includes a "show maps json" command that allows it 
to return multipath map data in JSON format.  This makes it easier for applications to parse information from multipathd.

http://git.opensvc.com/gitweb.cgi?p=multipath-tools/.git;a=commit;h=8fb53a78f19069556edc5e1f1f30f9f58e4f43e8

This command should be backported to the RHEL-7.3 release.
