Multipath boot problem

Hi,

My HP machine is using as boot device a disk defined in the Storage (IBM V5000). The connection is done by fiber connected through fiber switch.
No lacal disks are installed.

I'm using redhat 6.6.

I've installed and configured multipath.
Everything seems to work properly, however, randomly, after having rebooted the machine, I could have the following errors:

Code:
Oct  6 13:07:36 sms01 kernel: device-mapper: multipath: version 1.6.0 loaded
Oct  6 13:07:36 sms01 kernel: device-mapper: multipath round-robin: version 1.0.0 loaded
Oct  6 13:07:36 sms01 kernel: device-mapper: table: 253:0: multipath: error getting device
Oct  6 13:07:36 sms01 kernel: device-mapper: table: 253:0: multipath: error getting device

This is the output of multipath -ll

Code:
mpatha (36005076380810184bc00000000000015) dm-0 IBM,2145
size=170G features='0' hwhandler='0' wp=rw
|-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=50 status=active
| |- 1:0:0:0 sdc 8:32 active ready running
| `- 0:0:1:0 sdb 8:16 active ready running
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=10 status=enabled
  `- 0:0:0:0 sda 8:0  active ready running

While, the command multipath -d shows:

Code:
reload: mpatha (36005076380810184bc00000000000015) undef IBM,2145
size=170G features='0' hwhandler='0' wp=undef
|-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=50 status=undef
| |- 1:0:0:0 sdc 8:32 active ready running
| `- 0:0:1:0 sdb 8:16 active ready running
`-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=10 status=undef
  |- 0:0:0:0 sda 8:0  active ready running
  `- 1:0:1:0 sdd 8:48 undef ready running

In the attached file, my configuration (conf.txt) and the output of multipath -v3 (output.txt).

Could you please help me?
