MULTIPATH multipath works immediately and as expected. there are no any claims to multipath itself (except Bug #1240047, Bug #1240049).
problems are begun if you configure more than one initiator for one physical Emulex CNA interface. obviously this problem relates not only to multipath but in general to large quantity of initiators configured in Emulex CNA BIOS. the cause of this problem is open-iscsi. 'iscsiadm -m fw' will show only some initiators configured in Emulex CNA BIOS - only one for each physical interface. 'iscsiadm -m discovery -t fw' will return the same implicitly. further it is more upsetting. 'iscsiadm -m discovery -t fw' or 'iscsiadm -m discovery -t st ...' (each one separately) can't build working base of nodes. it gets confused in multipath and generates wild mishmash of initiators, targets and paths. please note that some of such paths are incorrect and do not lead to corresponding targets. so it is impossible to fully automate the definition of nodes, instead it is required to edit /etc/iscsi/nodes and /etc/iscsi/send_targets manually. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1238169 Title: 13.04 server: Fujitsu BX900/DX90 installation problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-iscsi/+bug/1238169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
