Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1433564
update disable-multipath.sh script to enable multipath for specific device
Last modified: 2018-06-20 23:34:48 EDT
Description of problem: ----------------------- Grafton LA release had an requirement to disable multipath devices ( because of the bug 1303940 ) in the system. With that said, disable-multipath.sh script was developed to disable all the multipath devices. With HCI GA, the bug 1303940 is fixed as use_lvmetad is set to '0', but still the vdsm configures multipath such that it creates the WWID/mpath names for the devices, even though such an device doesn't have multipath exist. This is the behavior with any hypervisor managed in RHV. So avoid WWID/mpath names getting assigned, we need to configure blacklisting of a device specifically. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ------------------------------------------------------------- gdeploy-2.0.1-11.el7rhgs How reproducible: ----------------- Always Steps to Reproduce: ------------------- 1. Run disable-multipath.sh script to blacklist the specific device Actual results: --------------- All the devices are blacklisted Expected results: ----------------- Blacklist the specific device
Also make sure that the file /etc/multipath.conf starts with these lines : # VDSM REVISION 1.3 # VDSM PRIVATE provided that these lines are not already there
Commit: https://github.com/gluster/gdeploy/commit/40a0c02a46e should resolve the issue.
Tested with gdeploy-2.0.2-27.el7rhgs /etc/multipath.conf file starts with these lines # VDSM REVISION 1.3 # VDSM PRIVATE # VDSM REVISION 1.5 In actual '# VDSM REVISION 1.3' is not required. vdsm revision value has been now bumped up to 1.5 Verified that all the devices are blacklisted.
