Created attachment 799128 [details]
udevadmn info for one of the partitions

Description of problem:
Having two swap partitions, systemd consistently mark one of them as failed.

It is the same issue as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789573 but instead of having the same by-path, my udevadm -q -n /dev/sd[ab]4 output shows the same disk/by-partlabel/swap.

It could also be related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1003867 but not the same.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemd 204

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. You need to have 2 [disk with a] swap partition[s]
2. enable them on fstab
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

I guess this is perfectly allowed, and should work.
Comment 3 Jorge Villaseñor 2013-09-18 15:48:03 UTC 
Doesn't that mean that they have the same symlink pointing to both devices?

Anyway, I am getting the same behavior as the bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789573.

Reading that bug I thought that could be the cause. Since this by-label/swap is allowed, I am not sure what can cause the issue.

Still I can see this wrong behavior. Do you have any other idea on what can be wrong?
