[16429851] Driver Trace Log Message Information Only

[All Linux Operating Systems] A control unit (CU) failover and failback might generate a driver trace log message which is informational only.

A CU failover and failback might generate in the logs a driver trace message that is informational only. When one path fails, the failover path is chosen, and I/O continues on that path until the original path (failback) is restored. The failover and failback process might generate a driver trace message which can be ignored.

Here is an example of how a driver trace message might appear in the logs. Note, in the example, the operating system version is not shown but in the log files, the operating system version is listed.
