Hello,
From time to time I get a multipath device called '1':
1 dm-4 DELL,MD32xx
size=50G features='3 queue_if_no_path pg_init_retries 50' hwhandler='1
rdac' wp=rw
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=-1 status=enabled
|- 0:0:0:1 sdd 8:48 failed undef running
`- 0:0:1:1 sde 8:64 failed undef running
This happens when I unmap/map luns to a specific host.
I am seeing this on machines connected through fibre channel to an IBM
DS3400, but also on a machine direct attached to a Dell MD3200.
1 dm-6 IBM,1726-4xx FAStT
size=550G features='1 queue_if_no_path' hwhandler='1 rdac' wp=rw
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=-1 status=enabled
`- 1:0:0:15 sdh 8:112 failed undef running
I haven't been able to remove the device from the listing. I can remove
it from device mapper, but as soon as I rescan the bus it appears again.
The only way to get rid of the multipath (so it stays away) is to reboot
the machine.
The main concern with this device I have is that some scripts (like when
you recreate initramfs) go and check all the devices. And when it
checks this device the process hangs...
Has anybody seen this before?
