2007-06-13 10:35:28 Fabio Massimo Di Nitto description Binary package hint: multipath-tools In the process of fixing #98518 in feisty, we introduced a corner case bug. Installing multipath-tools alone (without any other device-mapper client), will make multipathd fail because dm-mod is not autoloaded. The fix is very simple by adding a udev rule as fixed in gutsy to modprobe the proper module. Patch for feisty on the way Fabio Binary package hint: multipath-tools In the process of fixing #98518 in feisty, we introduced a corner case bug. Installing multipath-tools alone (without any other device-mapper client), will make multipathd fail because dm-multipath is not autoloaded. The fix is very simple by adding a udev rule as fixed in gutsy to modprobe the proper module. Impact: multipath will not work if dm-multipath is not loaded Fix: make sure to load dm-multipath as soon as possible if the package is installed and this can be achieved with udev rules. Patch: in attachement How to reproduce: install clean feisty server (no lvm or mdadm or crypto). Install multipath-tools and see that it will fail to start. modprobe dm-multipath and start.. it will work. Fabio

2007-06-13 11:01:44 Martin Pitt multipath-tools: statusexplanation That looks weird. You attempt a modprobe on each and every block device addition/change? That's going to be a lot, and is certainly unnecessary. Why not just add/remove it from /etc/modules in postinst/prerm?
