Commit c36f2f4 changed the find_multipaths values from yes/no to on/off/strict/greedy. yes/no are still supported as aliases to on/off, but output from multipathd show config uses on/off.

However, the documentation only listed yes/no, which was particularly confusing when comparing output from multipathd show config to the documentation.

I find the vertical bar syntax confusing here. We use it nowhere else in the man page. Can you just put "off", and add "'no' is an alias for 'off'" further down?

Multipath behaves like \fBstrict\fR. Multipathd behaves like \fBgreedy\fR.
