------- Comment From helle...@us.ibm.com 2015-03-11 16:16 EDT------- Hi Mauricio,
Thanks for your detailed analysis, but I think we already knew this: that the separator was an issue, that you have submitted patches to Ubuntu to resolve it; that we still don't know (per LP 1430074) whether we'll end up with the 'p' separator or the '-path' separator when it all shakes out. And understood, most of the real issues are in udev (and the installer), which actually affect which device nodes are created and removed. That's why the focus of this bug was intended to be just the inconsistency in the way the tools report. And I think your comments above confirm that the default output does *not* match the device nodes as they actually exist. Again: this is a cosmetic issue and so not a hot bug. But I'd like to keep it open until the "separator" issues are resolved. If we end up with -part, there may be no work required at all. But if we go with 'p' as you are proposing... then I'd like to see if Canonical is willing to fix the tools so they accurately reflect the device nodes as exist, as they seem to do for devices other than mpath. If you strongly disagree I'll leave it closed. Otherwise I'd like to reopen. Give me your thoughts, please.
