Hi, guys. There is a problem: udev does not create partitions for multipath devices in case I use kpartx.rules provided with multipath sources. I found that udev always go to kpartx_end after following line of rules: ENV{DM_TABLE_STATE}!="LIVE", GOTO="kpartx_end"
Hi Just curious - what would you want to do with inactive table??? You cannot read/scan such device ?
There is 8 (!!!) years old thread that discusses this problem: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2007-July/msg00095.html So what is the current state? Should we fix udev rules for multipath or should we create better patch for dmsetup.c? Meanwhile I've copied multipath.rules from redhat and partitions are created as they should.
What is the exact problem you do have/see ? Can you describe in some single repeatable steps a reproducer ? Which distro are you talking about (Fedora ? Debian ??) Have you opened any bugzilla anywhere ? Regard Zdenek -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
