Id this RHVH specific or shows on RHEL as well?
Doron, This was not seen in RHEL only in RHVH
Ryan, is this related to the vdsm multipath bug 1016535 or specific to RHV-H?
This is definitely related to the vdsm bug. We configure vdsm at first boot on RHVH. If "vdsm-tool configure --force" on RHEL results in the same behavior, it's the vdsm bug. RHVH does not otherwise modify multipath
When the RHVH is installed, and then redhat-virtualization-host-image-upate rpms is installed and the node is rebooted, the multipath entries shows up for all the disks. This is kind of nasty experience. Raising the severity to Urgent
Freddy, this bug is dependent on bug 1380272. Is there a fix possible in vdsm for 4.2.5?
Workaround for this issue ---------------------------- 1. Blacklist all the devices in /etc/multipath.conf Add the following to the /etc/multipath.con blacklist { devnode "*" } 2. Reboot the RHVH hosts One problem that I observed is that mpath names on the boot disks are not going away.
In an RHHI environment (no SAN / iSCSI storage) it should be safe to simply run "ansible rhhi-hosts -a 'multipath -F'" and then relaunch the wizard. Even better if the installation playbooks did this automatically for our customers.
With RHHI-V 1.8 'blacklist gluster devices' option is introduced with deployment and this helps to blacklist the devices used for gluster bricks. So these devices should not have multipath names post reboot Should we close this bug ?
With RHHI-V 1.8 has an option to blacklist gluster brick devices, which helps to blocklist the local devices
