When booting the USB device, please remove the rhgb keyword, and see if more details are shown.

the picture after removing the keyword

Comment 6 Fabian Deutsch 2016-09-19 14:35:59 UTC
Correct. But now we see the error message: "Failed to mount block device of live image"

I think we need rd.debug and a serial console to get the complete dracut debug output.

Comment 7 Douglas Schilling Landgraf 2016-09-19 16:44:22 UTC

Thanks for @ Douglas Schilling Landgraf's help!!!

Comment 14 Fabian Deutsch 2016-09-20 09:05:03 UTC
Moving to 3.6.10.

Jian, please verify that RHEVH can still be installed on a multipath device.

Comment 15 Fabian Deutsch 2016-09-30 10:44:48 UTC
Ping?

Comment 16 jianwu 2016-10-10 09:31:42 UTC
Hi, Fabian Deutsch,

it could installthat RHEVH on mulipath device.

Comment 17 Fabian Deutsch 2016-10-11 21:23:48 UTC
Thanks.

Douglas, isn't this a known issue with RHEV-H 3.y? And do we have a kbase on it?

We have faced this issue previously, I didn't see any kbase about this topic.
I have created one: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2702371

Additionally, I am trying to move forward with bz#1377436. I have reproduce the report even in RHEV-H 7.3.

Comment 19 Fabian Deutsch 2016-10-14 07:59:45 UTC
Thanks, then closing this bug according to comment 18.

Btw. it should not be present in NGN.

Comment 20 Fabian Deutsch 2016-10-14 08:01:22 UTC
Because the runtime image (which requires the specific multipath configuration) is coupled with the installation time multipath conf (which must not use the special multipath config), we can not fix this bug in vintage RHEV-H.
