解决"/dev/sdXisapparentlyinusebythesystemwillnotmakeafilesystemhere"
在Linux上配置multipath，在HP EVA存储上划分一个100G大小的LUN,然后把它映射给Linux主机，将该100G空间使用fdisk进行分区，分为3个区（关于Linuxmultipath多路径配置与使用案例请参考作者的另一篇博文：http://blog.itpub.net/31015730/viewspace-2146732/）

但是在格式化文件系统的时候，出现了报错
[root@seaing mapper]#mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1
mke2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006)
/dev/sdb1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here!
提示/dev/sdb1正在被使用。 /dev/sdb1正在被DM管理，所以我们创建文件系统时提示报错，我们手工的移除，就可以正常的创建文件系统，具体操作如下：
[root@seaing mapper]#dmsetup status

删除映射关系，取消映射

重启后测试，该文件不能正常挂载，手工挂载也会失败。
[root@seaing mapper]#df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

tmpfs 7.9G 0 7.9G 0% /dev/shm
手动挂载也不能成功
[root@seaing mapper]# mount -a
mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /comsys busy
所以说这种方法只能暂时性挂载，个人觉得不太不可取！！！想要永久的进行挂载，还是按照作者的另一篇博文（http://blog.itpub.net/31015730/viewspace-2146732/）的方法进行比较稳妥一点。
