[ILUG] PV UUID + multipath

Hi Conor,

The actual issue relating to a PV UUID's not matching up with the UUID
on an EVA SAN presented LUN after a SAN and file server reboot.
The resolution was to recreate the PV with the new UUID using the
restorefile. I am currently diagnosing the issue and trying to figure
out how the PV UUID for the SAN LUN gets generated and how it may have
changed between reboots.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards to all the family,

John
