RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Ben Marzinski 2021-10-26 22:35:10 UTC
device-mapper-multipath is currently based on the upstream 0.8.6 release plus numerous patches.  All the non-rhel specific patches have all been pulled into 0.8.7. Besides this code, the 0.8.7 release includes additional builtin defaults, small fixes for some corner case bugs that don't have Red Hat bugzillas, and some internal changes that have no users visible effects.

There is no specific testing that needs to be done for this rebase, other than the regular regression testing.

Comment 1 Lin Li 2021-10-29 07:00:24 UTC
There are no specific tests that need to be run for this bug,
since it's just a rebase without many user visable changes. So it just
needs the regular regression tests.

Comment 3 Ben Marzinski 2021-11-10 18:46:04 UTC
Package updated.

Comment 6 Lin Li 2021-11-15 13:57:10 UTC
Regression test passed with device-mapper-multipath-0.8.7-2.el9
Move to verified.
