---Problem Description---
Using the order "multipathd -k" to remove all the paths of a LUN with I/O
running ,the order prompts that all the paths are removed
succesfully but actually there is a path left to run the I/O.
Contact Information = lizhhua.com
---Additional Hardware Info---
The host is in a SAN.
---uname output---
Linux dpotux28.storage.tucson.ibm.com 2.6.18-194.el5 #1 SMP Tue Mar 16 21:52:43
EDT 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Machine Type = i386
---Debugger---
A debugger is not configured
---Steps to Reproduce---
1.Set up the host to a SAN.
2.multipath -ll LUNname.
3.Run I/O on the LUN.
4.multipathd -k
>del path pathname(delete all the paths of the LUN)
5.multipath -ll LUNname.
We can see there is a path left.

I think when we delete the last path of the LUN with I/O running , the prompt
should be not "ok" as the last path is not deleted.

fyi .. IBM is not pursuing this bugzilla and therefore this Red Hat bugzilla can be closed ...
