Hm, that looks like zipl fails if it detects the disk layout on a partition instead of a disk device. Usually, I can see the multipath disk device as /dev/dm-0 on my testmachines and subsequent dm-X numbers as the partitions on this device. e.g. my strace shows: --> [pid 68581] newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/dm-0", {st_mode=S_IFBLK|0660, st_rdev=makedev(0xfe, 0), ...}, 0) = 0 --< In the failing multipath zipl setup strace, I cannot find any dm-0, but dm-1 instead: --> 3480829 newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/dm-1", {st_mode=S_IFBLK|0660, st_rdev=makedev(0xfe, 0x1), ...}, 0) = 0 --< However, if you have more than one multipath device attached, dm-1 could be valid for a disk device, so not sure if my suspect holds. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
