Package: src:multipath-tools
Version: 0.5.0-6
Severity: serious
Hi Ritesh,
With the default path selector changing to dm-service-time [1], it's not
possible to boot from multipath currently, as it's not in the initramfs:
# multipath -v3
...
... | mpathg: assembled map [1 queue_if_no_path 1 alua 2 1 service-time
0 1 1 8:80 1 service-time 0 1 1 8:176 1]
... | mpathg: set ACT_CREATE (map does not exist)
[...] device-mapper: table: 254:0: multipath: unknown path selector type
...
May you please consider the attached patch for an upload for jessie?
# gzip -dc /boot/initrd.img | cpio -t | grep dm-service-time
118384 blocks
lib/modules/.../kernel/drivers/md/dm-service-time.ko
Thanks!
