I made a few changes to the system to accomplish this. First I got the machine to boot by doing the following from the initramfs: 1. modprobe scsi_dh_alua 2. multipath -v0 3. exit Once the machine was booted, I did the following: 1. Added scsi_dh_alua to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules 2. Ran update-initramfs to update the initramfs with this change 3. Set GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true in /etc/default/grub 4. Rebuild grub.cfg by using grub-mkconfig I'm still getting a lot of errors booting the system from udev due to the fact that udev is spawning a call to multipath for each /dev/sd device on the system. I decided to change to not use UUID when I saw in the initramfs that the /dev/disk/by-uuid symlink was pointing to one of the paths of the multipath device rather than the multipath device itself. It seems there may be some udev configuration issues here when booting from a multipath device. Can we get someone from Canonical to take a look at this? -- Problem Description -- We try to install Ubuntu version 15.04 build 20150218 on our system which use the ibmveth for the network and bluefin (lpfc) for this disks.
