Every time I reboot my server it hangs on the multipath devices.
The server is Debian based. I've had this problem with all kernels I've tried (2.6.18, 2.6.24, 2.6.32). In /etc/multipath.conf, no_path_retry is set to queue
Here are snippets from the reboot log: <snip> Stopping multipath daemon: multipathd. ... Saving the system clock.

What can I do to avoid this problem when rebooting? Thanks. -- James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
