Public bug reported: I had a Lucid x64 server working with a Dell MD3000i with 4 paths and worked as expected. I added the "prio rdac" line to the conf file, then upgraded to Precise, and removed the old mpath_rdac line and reboot one more time, just to be sure. I did this based on a section in https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/serverguide.pdf
as a "sanity check" test, I'm doing 'pv < /dev/mapper/dellsas1 > /dev/null' (friendly names enabled). On Lucid i'd get about 100MB/s After upgrading to Precise I get an almost solid 768kB/s. If I instead use the 4 underlying /dev/sd* devices, 2 give errors as expected, and 2 run at about 100MB/s as expected so iscsi seems to be working correctly and multipath not. ** Affects: multipath-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1057054 Title: poor performance after upgrade to Precise To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1057054/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
