Description of problem: The devnode_blacklist {} keyword has been depricated in the /etc/multipath.conf http://christophe.varoqui.free.fr/ 2006-03-13 multipath-tools-0.4.7 shortlog : blacklist * add per-device product-string blacklist * add a device blacklist * add a wwid blacklist * deprecate the "devnode_blacklist" keyword ub favor of "blacklist" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.4.7-17.el5 How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable the device_blacklist {} keyword in /etc/multipath.conf 2. Install device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7-17.el5 3. service multipathd start dies after running and multipath commands fail Actual results: [root@ncldl38072 ~]# grep devnode_blacklist /etc/multipath.conf devnode_blacklist { [root@ncldl38072 ~]# rpm -q device-mapper-multipath device-mapper-multipath-0.4.7-17.el5 [root@ncldl38072 ~]# service multipathd start Starting multipathd daemon: [ OK ] [root@ncldl38072 ~]# ps -ef|grep multipath root 19067 18803 0 16:02 pts/1 00:00:00 grep multipath [root@ncldl38072 ~]# multipath -ll error parsing config file [root@ncldl38072 ~]# Expected results: [root@ncldl38072 ~]# multipath -ll mpath0 (3600601608c751a005804047e1687dc11) dm-11 DGC,RAID 5 [size=32G][features=1 queue_if_no_path][hwhandler=1 emc] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=2][active] \_ 0:0:0:0 sda 8:0 [active][ready] \_ 1:0:1:0 sdd 8:48 [active][ready] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled] \_ 0:0:1:0 sdb 8:16 [active][ready] \_ 1:0:0:0 sdc 8:32 [active][ready] Additional info: Changing devnode_blacklist{} to blacklist {} in /etc/multipath.conf resolves the issue but I think it would be better to support both keywords during the RHEL5 release.
