[Openstack-operators] problems with iscsi multipath (Ubuntu 16 / Mitaka)

Hi,

Is someone using iscsi multipath in Ubuntu 16 / Mitaka? Things that work OK
for us in Ubuntu 14 / Icehouse seem to be broken.

Basically, the WWID of the volume is not automatically placed in
/etc/multipath/wwids, and if we add it manually, we can attach with
multipath, but the detach never cleans up iscsi sessions nor device mapper
multipath maps.

(using multipath-tools 0.5.0+git1.656f8865-5ubuntu2.1, and only one path
for testing purposes)



- first attach, gives "can't get udev device" error ->
https://bugs.launchpad.net/os-brick/+bug/1585940

          Failed to execute command multipath -l
/dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.167.15.101:3260-iscsi-iqn.1992-08.

can't get udev device


- once patched, we get a non-multipath attach: in nova-compute.log we see
"couldn't find a valid multipath device path for <id>"

       issuing "multipath -v3", we get "wwid <id> not in wwids file,
skipping <device>"

- if we manually add the WWID to /etc/multipath/wwids, the attach is done
with multipath:

- but the detach operation doesn't remove the multipath map and doesn't

Any idea of what could be happening?
