Package: multipath-tools
Version: 0.6.1-3
The systemd multpath-tools.service loads multipath modules using the following
line:
ExecStartPre=/sbin/modprobe -a scsi_dh_alua scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh_rdac
dm-multipath
While the sysvinit file /etc/init.d/multipath-tools-boot loads modules with:
modprobe dm-multipath 2> /dev/null || true
The /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/multipath load modules using:
MP_MODULES="dm-multipath dm-emc"
for module in ${MP_MODULES}; do
if modprobe "$module"; then
verbose && log_success_msg "loaded module ${module}."
else
log_failure_msg "failed to load module ${module}."
fi
done
All three of these methods should load the same set of modules (the
systemd one seems to be best). Perhaps, there should be a
/etc/default/multipath-tools config file that governs which modules to
load?
