At this particular time multipath -ll show as all paths are faulty even though lsscsi command able to show attached devices and corresponding HBA was online. This test was running with scsi_logging_level=6 and multipath is not able to updates his paths as it complains "test unit ready" command is not working on any of those paths. "lsscsi" command doesn't send any I/O to make sure that they are operational. Please do "dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/null count=1 iflag=direct" to make sure they are operational. > I have collected the dump and I/O got blocked for device mapper devices not for underlying scsi devices( as device mapper could able get which path it can use from path selector in dm-multipath).

In my case as paths were not available in b/w and I/O seems to blocked which made application(blast) to be hung. The behavior depends on your multipath configuration (queue_if_no_path etc), but looks like your paths are all dead in your case though.
