[Bug 1371634] Re: block devices appear twice

 

Actually, on advice of Andy C, lets go ahead and consider this
critical... this cert needs to be completed as soon as possible and we
can't do that without multipathing working properly.

  I'm not sure what exactly those block devices are (as in if they're
  raided in hardware or they actually represent physical spinning
  disks).  But I do know that writing data to sda causes that data to be
  readable from sdg.

  The same is true:
   sda -> sdg
   sdb -> sdh

  That is what causes those UUIDs to be similar.  Everything is
  functional, you just have to know that if your root device is /dev/sdg
  that you should probably not write data to /dev/sda thinking you can
  use it as a disk.
