This might be self inflicted. First, we have really good multipath documentation now.
You're better off following our docs first and then supplementing it with the vendor docs if it doesn't work. Many popular SANs have built-in support. https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/dm-multipath-chapter.html HP MSA's are already included in the built-in DB, your config file is likely not needed so lets start by eliminating that as a variable by following these directions. https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/multipath-setting-up-dm- multipath.html#multipath-setup-overview plus your path alias, and, # update-initramfs -u -k all To copy the multipath.conf to the ramdisk. Make all these changes, reboot, and before you shutdown again grab: * sudo dmsetup table * sudo udisks --dump * sudo -i; echo 'show config' | multipathd -k and attach to the bug. Thanks. I'm hoping you have a newer MSA and this is just a mp jumbled config. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1135453 Title: open-iscsi +mpio with multipathd init script order errors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1135453/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
