The status of multipathd.service during installation is : [anaconda root@vm-73-209 ~]# systemctl status multipathd ? multipathd.service - Device-Mapper Multipath Device Controller Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/multipathd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead) Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: sdh: add path (uevent) Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: 36005076300810b3e0000000000000022: load table [0 419430400 multipath 1 queue_if_no_path 0 2 1 service-time 0 1 1 8:1... 1 8:48 1] Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: 36005076300810b3e0000000000000022: event checker started Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: sdh [8:112]: path added to devmap 36005076300810b3e0000000000000022 Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: sdk: add path (uevent) Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: 36005076300810b3e0000000000000270: load table [0 209715200 multipath 1 queue_if_no_path 0 2 1 service-time 0 1 1 8:1... 1 8:96 1] Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: 36005076300810b3e0000000000000270: event checker started Nov 23 06:39:51 localhost multipathd[1079]: sdk [8:160]: path added to devmap 36005076300810b3e0000000000000270 Nov 23 06:40:11 localhost systemd[1]: Stopping Device-Mapper Multipath Device Controller... Nov 23 06:40:11 localhost systemd[1]: Stopped Device-Mapper Multipath Device Controller. Start multipathd.service manually, and refresh the disks on Anaconda GUI, it could work normally. So, the issue should be multipathd.service is not started by default which causes installing RHVH on multipath disks to fail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHVH-4.3-20181122.2-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RHVH-4.3-20181122.2-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso on a multipath machine 2. Go to Installation Destination page of Anaconda GUI, select the desired multipath disks, and click Done Actual results: 1. No disks selected, can't continue to install RHVH Expected results: 1. Multipath disks could be selected, and installation could succeed. Additional info: No such issue with RHVH 4.2, for RHVH 4.2, multipathd.servcie is started by default during installation.
Tested RHVH-4.3-20181210.0-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso on machine having multipath disks, multipathd.service is active during installation, and install RHVH on multipath disks succeeded. Will mark this bug as VERIFIED when it's moved to ON_QA.
Tested RHVH-4.3-20190117.0-RHVH-x86_64-dvd1.iso on machine with multipath disks, the result is the same with comment #2.
