    <p>An update that has one fix can now be installed.</p>

    


    
        <h2>Description:</h2>
    
    <p>This update for multipath-tools fixes the following issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fixes from upstream 0.11.3 (bsc#1253260)<ul>
<li>Improved the communication with <strong>udev</strong> and <strong>systemd</strong> by triggering
  uevents when path devices are added to or removed from multipath maps,
  or when <code>multipathd reconfigure</code> is executed after changing blacklist
  directives in <code>multipath.conf</code>.</li>
<li>Failed paths should be checked every <code>polling_interval</code>. In certain cases,
  this wouldn&#x27;t happen, because the check interval wasn&#x27;t reset by multipathd.</li>
<li>It could happen that multipathd would accidentally release a SCSI persistent
  reservation held by another node.</li>
<li>After manually failing some paths and then reinstating them, sometimes
  the reinstated paths were immediately failed again by multipathd.</li>
<li>Various minor fixes reported by coverity.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
