16.04:

/etc/init.d/multipath-tools

# Required-Start: udev $local_fs $remote_fs $syslog

$remote_fs s wrong here, because it results in:

root@inetgw2:/etc/init.d# journalctl -x | grep mpath
май 05 16:53:46 inetgw2 ocfs2[1459]: Starting Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2) mount.ocfs2: Device name specified was not found while opening device /dev/mapper/mpatha

i.e. multipathd is started _after_ systemd tries mount.

looks like removing $remote_fs solves problem.

Thank you!
