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 of problem:
Auto install RHEV-H failed into device that wasn't managed by multipath with "iscsi_install" parameter.

BOOTIF=eth0 storage_init=/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc iscsi_init=/dev/sdc iscsi_target_name=iqn.2008-09.com.redhat:rhevh iscsi_install iscsi_server=10.66.72.61:3260
firstboot

the disk /dev/sdb wasn't managed by multipath
Auto install failed with error info "ERROR-install-Grub Installation Failed"

maybe issue happen follow install.py patch 
 def grub_install(self):
        if is_iscsi_install():
            self.disk = re.sub("p[1,2,3]$", "", findfs(self.boot_candidate))
        device_map = "(hd0) %s" % self.disk
        logger.debug(device_map)


change into:
  def grub_install(self):
        if is_iscsi_install():
            self.disk = findfs(self.boot_candidate)
            if not "/dev/mapper/" in self.disk:
                    self.disk = self.disk[:-1]
            else:
                    self.disk = re.sub("p[1,2,3]$", "", self.disk)
        device_map = "(hd0) %s" % self.disk
        logger.debug(device_map)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhev-hypervisor6-6.4-20121126.0.el6

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Auto install rhev-h with 
with "BOOTIF=eth0 storage_init=/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc iscsi_init=/dev/sdc iscsi_target_name=iqn.2008-09.com.redhat:rhevh iscsi_install iscsi_server=10.66.72.61:3260
 firstboot" parameter

Actual result:
After Step 1, Auto install RHEV-H failed into device that wasn't managed by multipath with "iscsi_install" parameter.

the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 9 haiyang,dong 2013-10-19 10:06:31 UTC 
Test version:
rhev-hypervisor6-6.5-20131017.0.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-4.el6

Test step:
BOOTIF=eth0 storage_init=/dev/vda,/dev/sda iscsi_init=/dev/sda iscsi_target_name=iqn.2013-01.com:hadong iscsi_install iscsi_server=10.66.11.127:3260 firstboot

the boot device /dev/vda wasn't managed by multipath
Auto install still failed with another error info "Unable to find boot partition".

The root cause is due to it create BootBackup using "mke2fs /dev/vdap3 -L BootBackup"
actually it should be "mke2fs /dev/vda3 -L BootBackup".

so need re-assigned this bug.
Comment 14 haiyang,dong 2013-11-01 07:19:09 UTC 
Test version:
rhevh-6.5-20131031.1.0.iso
ovirt-node-3.0.1-7.el6

Test step:
BOOTIF=eth0 storage_init=/dev/vda,/dev/sda iscsi_init=/dev/sda iscsi_target_name=iqn.2013-01.com:hadong iscsi_install iscsi_server=10.66.11.127:3260 firstboot

the boot device /dev/vda wasn't managed by multipath
Auto install success and also could login rhev-h 

so this bug has been fixed, after the status of this bug change into "ON_QA", i will verify it.
