Hi and thanks for chiming in. I probably underestimated how often multipath is used in VMs, but I still think that the vast majority of the cloud instances out there have no use for it. However I see your point, what we need is to enable socket based activation for multipathd, as Rafael proposed. I'm retitling this bug accordingly.
