Fine, but we are still waiting for answers to the above questions, see
comment 19. Like I said: there may in fact be a bug here, but we need
to understand if the root volume was intended to be multipathed (i.e.
configured in the OS as a multipath group), and if that failed to happen
during install (or a subsequent reboot), and if the root volume was part
of the failover tests also. Because if the above are true, of course
you'll get the result here. Thx.

Oops, I see the above comment was from Ubuntu, not IBM!. Sorry about that!
But we're waiting on our IBM submitters to answer these questions, since
it looks like what I described above is possiblly what happened here.
Thanks for you patience on the Ubuntu side.

Title:
ISST-SAN: Filesystem converted into read only after interface failover
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
== Comment: #0 ==
I was running interface failover tests on the Storage Texan2 ( TMS9840). zop03-01 has disks coming from Texan2 via NIPV.
Interface failover basically brings down a interface, so that other
inetrfaces take over, waits for 10 min and then brings it back up.
There are 4 interfaces on texan2.
While the third one was brought down, the IO on zop03-01 was stopped. I was running tests to create directories and files on the FS which were created on the multipath disks. The tests suddenly started to fail when the interface failover happened on the 3rd interface.
Now i see that when i login to the system everything is read only.

=================
== Comment: #6 ==
There is no issue now. System is all fine. But i can recreate it
easily. If i start IO tests and parallelly start interface
failover tests, it can be recreated.
But i just dont want it to get into the same state. and you do an
fsck, reboot solves the problem.
We need to get into the root cause for why the system is going to bad
state.

Re-creating the issue with more details:
The IO tests were running ( IO tests basically create directories and files on the FS).
I started the interface failover tests. It basically fails the interface on the SAN subsystem and failsover to the next available interface.There are such 4 interfaces available.The SAN is texan2.
WHen the interface was failed, The IO halted for a moment, by that i mean:
Created Directory /FS3-part1/test1 rc = 0 at 04/17/2015 12:24:05
Created Directory /FS4-part1/test1 rc = 0 at 04/17/2015 12:24:05

Created Directory /FS0-part3/test1 rc = 0 at 04/17/2015 12:24:09
=======> Here it halted
On the console, i was seeing messages like:

Till here the machine was all fine, in rw state.
Now, after 4 minutes of time:
I suddenly saw the errors of IO failing:
