Issue
- Logical Volume has been created on top of NVMe over FC device presented from external storage and with
native nvme multipathingconfigured. During the boot process, system tries to mount the device according to/etc/fstabrecord and the job terminates by timeout which causes the system to boot into emergency mode. - Issue not seen when mounting the LV manually after system boot.
- Issue occurs without
native nvme multipathing, that is, even with theDM Multipathing. - Issue is seen as well while trying to mount
nvmedevices from external storage and without LVM.
