The latest 3.2 version doesn't have this problem on dilllp1. [Impact] Admins who use parted to partition a multipath device after installation will find that more than one device may be generated for the same partition: one in the form XXXXpN, and one in the form XXXX-partN. [Test case] See below; use parted to partition a multipath device. [Regression Potential] Scripted tools which deal with the partitioning via parted and would depend on the devices from multipath being named "XXXXpN" will find that the device node is no longer available, since it was chosen to align with general udev rules for multipath coming from udev and multipath-tools, using the "XXXX-partN" form. --- Problem Description ============================= Two deivce created when creating 1 partition on a mpath device: % sudo parted /dev/mapper/mpath2 GNU Parted 2.3 Using /dev/mapper/mpath2 Welcome to GNU Parted!
