------- Comment From frede...@fr.ibm.com 2018-05-04 03:55 EDT------- Hi, I tried with the bionic iso and a virtual machine with a multipath setup based on backend file and everything went fine : --- <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' io='native'/> <source file='/home/fbonnard/ubuntuimage'/> <backingStore/> <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/> <serial>0001</serial> <alias name='scsi0-0-0-0'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/> </disk> <disk type='file' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' io='native'/> <source file='/home/fbonnard/ubuntuimage'/> <backingStore/> <target dev='sdb' bus='scsi'/> <serial>0001</serial> <alias name='scsi0-0-0-1'/> <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/> </disk> ---
I passed disk-detect/multipath/enable=true to the installer and everything went fine : root@vm80:/home/ubuntu# lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 3G 0 disk ??sda1 8:1 0 7M 0 part ??sda2 8:2 0 3G 0 part ??mpatha 253:0 0 3G 0 mpath ??mpatha-part1 253:1 0 7M 0 part ??mpatha-part2 253:2 0 3G 0 part / sdb 8:16 0 3G 0 disk ??sdb1 8:17 0 7M 0 part ??sdb2 8:18 0 3G 0 part ??mpatha 253:0 0 3G 0 mpath ??mpatha-part1 253:1 0 7M 0 part ??mpatha-part2 253:2 0 3G 0 part / root@vm80:/home/ubuntu# multipath -ll mpatha (0QEMU_QEMU_HARDDISK_0001) dm-0 QEMU,QEMU HARDDISK size=3.0G features='0' hwhandler='0' wp=rw |-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=1 status=active | `- 0:0:0:0 sda 8:0 active ready running `-+- policy='service-time 0' prio=1 status=enabled `- 0:0:0:1 sdb 8:16 active ready running root@vm80:/home/ubuntu# ls -ltr /dev/mapper/ total 0 crw------- 1 root root 10, 236 May 4 08:40 control lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 4 08:40 mpatha -> ../dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 4 08:40 mpatha-part1 -> ../dm-1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 4 08:40 mpatha-part2 -> ../dm-2 root@vm80:/home/ubuntu# mount |grep ext4 /dev/mapper/mpatha-part2 on / type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769039 Title: Ubuntu1804 installer is not able to detect SAN disks(mulitpath disks) with 'No disk drive was detected' message.
