Hi Nelson, this is a deficiency in your installation. The Multipath-tools package expects dm-multipath to exist and be a loadable module.
And we see it fail loading - in your logs: May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: --------start up-------- May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: read /etc/multipath.conf May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: DM multipath kernel driver not loaded May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: failed to increase buffer size May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: path checkers start up May 13 14:34:19 banana multipathd[70987]: DM multipath kernel driver not loaded May 13 14:34:19 banana systemd[1]: [0;1;39m[0;1;31m[0;1;39mmultipathd.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE[0m But also in your log we see: May 13 14:34:19 banana modprobe[70986]: modprobe: WARNING: Module dm-multipath not found in directory /lib/modules/5.11.13-x86_64-linode143 That is the underlying reasons and the problem here is that your kernel is the linode kernel that isn't providing this. https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/how-to-change-your-linodes-kernel/ If you'd switch to a default ubuntu kernel like "linux-generic" that will provide the module, and then allow multipath to run. ** Changed in: multipath-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1928374 Title: package multipath-tools 0.8.5-1ubuntu6 failed to install/upgrade: installed multipath-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1928374/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
