Hello,
I created an openstack environment with two compute nodes.
A this time only one virtual machine is running on compute-1, and
multipath -ll shows :
[root at compute-1 ansible]# multipath -ll
mpatha (3600601602b7150006c829a5f26c92aa8) dm-3 DGC ,VRAID
size=40G features='2 queue_if_no_path retain_attached_hw_handler'
hwhandler='1 alua' wp=rw
|-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=50 status=active
| |- 11:0:0:19 sdl 8:176 active ready running
| `- 15:0:0:19 sdo 8:224 active ready running
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=10 status=enabled
|- 9:0:0:19 sdm 8:192 active ready running
`- 13:0:0:19 sdn 8:208 active ready running
It's OK.
Now I migrated the instance on another compute node and on the compute-1:
[root at compute-1 ansible]# multipath -ll
Oct 29 18:26:11 | sdl: alua not supported
Oct 29 18:26:11 | sdo: alua not supported
Oct 29 18:26:11 | sdm: alua not supported
Oct 29 18:26:11 | sdn: alua not supported
mpatha (3600601602b7150006c829a5f26c92aa8) dm-3 DGC ,VRAID
size=40G features='2 queue_if_no_path retain_attached_hw_handler'
hwhandler='1 alua' wp=rw
|-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=0 status=active
| |- 11:0:0:19 sdl 8:176 active faulty running
| `- 15:0:0:19 sdo 8:224 active faulty running
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=0 status=enabled
|- 9:0:0:19 sdm 8:192 active faulty running
`- 13:0:0:19 sdn 8:208 active faulty running
It does not clean very well the multipath , are you agree ?
I must clean it by hand using multipath -f and echo 1 >
/sys/block/$DEVICE/device/delete
Does the work must be done by os-brick ?
