Hello,
We have 8 proxmox machines in a cluster, four of them were installed with the 4.2 ISO and the other four were installed with the 4.4 ISO.
We updated the 4.2 to 4.4 using the community updates. These four machines sv1n1 to sv1n4 are having issues booting up, the Emergency mode message pops up and pressing Control D to continue allows it to boot. The last four machines sv2n1 to sv2n4 can reboot and start without any issues.
When it boots it tries to perform three start jobs
A start job is running for dev-pve-data.device
A start job is running for dev-pve-swap.device
A start job is running for udev Wait for Complete Device Initialization
I looked into the "journalctl -xb" log and found a few errors before pressing Control D

(The Emergency Mode menu pops up telling me to press Control D to continue)
There is a multipath connection using four links to the iscsi server, however the other four machines sv2n1 to sv2n4 do not have any issues and have the same multipath configuration.
-----
After continuing, it tries to perform four start jobs
A start job is running for dev-pve-data.device
A start job is running for dev-pve-swap.device
A start job is running for udev Wait for Complete Device Initialization
A start job is running for LSB: Raise Network Interfaces
udev fails but I believe everything else starts up.
Is there a bug in proxmox 4.2 that causes this? Could this be a Debian issue? Our 4.4 machines are working without issues. All of our machines are production servers.
Thank you
