How to fix this test
Automatic fix

Manual fix
Install the package through the distribution's package manager:
| Ubuntu | apt-get install -y multipath-tools |
| Red-Hat based | yum install -y device-mapper-multipath |
| Suse | zypper install -y multipath-tools |
Suse 12 requires a multipath-tools version greater than 0.5.0-40.1
Ubuntu 14.04: multipath-tools>=0.4.9-3ubuntu7.5 is broken.
We currently install version 0.4.9-3ubuntu7 of multipath-tools and its dependencies (kpartx, kpartx-boot, multipath-tools-boot).
If you have the broken version already installed, please contact the INFINIDAT support team.
