Description Marko Myllynen 2012-03-21 15:42:09 UTC
Description of problem:
Cosmetics: without multipath in use / configured rhev-h complains on boot that it can't open /etc/multipath/wwids (no such file).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
20120209

Comment 2 Mike Burns 2012-03-23 12:11:25 UTC
The problem is this file doesn't exist in the base image.  It's generated and persisted during the installation.  This means it's not available when the image is booting.  

One possible solution is to have an empty file there in the base image.

1. first, reproduce the bug on 6.3-20120215.0 build, during boot can see the error "cannot open file [/etc/multipath/wwids] readonly: no such file or directory".
