[Bug 1028853] New: multipath-tools are not installed even if multipath is used during installation
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1028853 Bug ID: 1028853 Summary: multipath-tools are not installed even if multipath is used during installation Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: All OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation Assignee: yast2-maintainers@suse.de Reporter: martin.wilck@suse.com QA Contact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- During installation, YaST detects the presence of multipath devices and asks the user whether multipath should be activated. If the user selects "yes" and does a basic installation (Base System only), multipath-tools is not installed and multipath service is not enabled after installation. Therefore the system is running in non-multipath mode after installation, which is highly surprising. Installing multipath manually and converting the system to multipath is a difficult and highly error-prone procedure that is likely to cause massive user frustration. I haven't observed this under SLES12, apparently YaST on SLES already has patches to avoid this situation. If the user activates multipath during installation, multipath-tools and its dependencies must be installed and multipathd.service enabled, even if the user selected a minimal installation pattern. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
