Per multipath.conf(5):

| strict    Both multipath and multipathd treat only such devices as multipath 
devices which have been
|           part of a multipath map previously, and which are  therefore  
listed  in  the  wwids_file.
|           Users can manually set up multipath maps using the multipathd add 
map command. Once set up
|           manually, the map is remembered in the wwids file and will be set 
up automatically in  the
|           future.

I would guess your wwids/bindings files are empty, and thus you need to
follow the advice in the manpage: use multipathd add map, or maybe
multipath -a.

If you decide to change find_multipaths, I would suggest verifying
that your resulting setup works across reboots, etc.

By the way, I think the current recommendation for modern NetApp
platforms is `prio "alua"`, not `ontap`. Would be good if NetApp
would confirm this somehow/somewhere.

Best,
Chris
