Setting to post as the above patch is needed to solve some devices.  Will await confirmation on whether it's the same issue for cciss

For easier review here's diff w/o indent changes:
-    for b in ata cciss scsi usb; do
-       for d in $(ls /dev/disk/by-id/$b* 2>/dev/null); do

pre-pviot ouput

There's now hpsa driver which shows at least some cciss controllers as normal scsi devices - cciss in ML150 G6 is 103c:323a (rev 01)

This might be confusing for users, to know when it's cciss bus and when scsi,
We'll need to talk to kernel storage to see what's the plan with separate cciss driver, both hpsa and cciss are present in 6.1:

testing on  HP BL465c G5, which has RAID controller, support RAID 0,1, and
using the cciss driver instead hpsa,  and the bus type could be recognised as
cciss,


rhev-hypervisor 6.1-20110427,


auto install from pxe,

storage_init=cciss storage_vol=::::: local_boot firstboot ip=dhcp BOOTIF=$macaddress


auto install fail, and get error at 

mke2fs -t ext2 /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 -L Root

/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here.


try

mke2fs -n /dev/cciss/c0d0p1,
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here.


cat /proc/mounts, could find /root/.ssh,

seems here is also a race condition problem, but try several times, always fail with this error, 



attach the screenshot for your reference,

This bug is for specifically for the dracut plugin that does uninstall and disk cleanup.  Installation problems with storage_init=<bus> should be filed separately.  

This is also captured in bug 681164, so we can track it there instead.  

For this BZ, testing should be done by:

1.  installing (autoinstall, GUI install, doesn't matter how)
2.  specify storage_init=<bus of the install disk (ata, scsi, usb, cciss)> 
3.  specify either firstboot or uninstall on the command line

If firstboot and BOOTIF is not specified, then you should get the GUI.  Go to the console and check if there are PV/VGs

If uninstall, boot again to the gui and check that there are no PV/VGs on the disk

Another option for checking:  you can specify rdbreak which will drop you to a dracut shell.  From there, you should see the output of the pvremove and vgremove commands.  You can check directly there by running

lvm pvs
lvm vgs

> This is also captured in bug 681164, so we can track it there instead.

Apparently 681164 is for a UI install issue.  Please file a separate bz for this instead.

tested with storage_init=(usb,scsi,ata,cciss) all could be parse successfully, and installed successfully expect cciss, which has the error refer in comment 21, will open a new bug for it,
