Bug #2067949: Fixed issue where we try to write into a multipath device and fail since it is not ready for I/O. Now we wait until the I/O is likely to succeed. We introduced 2 new config options to make the wait time configurable:
wait_mpath_device_attempts
wait_mpath_device_interval
These options defaults to 4 attempts and 1 second interval respectively. See help text of the config options for more information.
