New script for setting up multipath.conf entries

I’ve added a new script to the Useful Scripts page called setup-violin-mpath.sh which automates the process of creating entries for the /etc/multipath.conf file on Red Hat 6 / Oracle Linux 6.

As the name suggests, I wrote it with Violin devices in mind, but there should be overlap with other storage which will potentially make it useful elsewhere… see here for more details.
