Never specify multipath devices by device names like `mpatha`. Device names such as this are not specific to a particular disk. The disk named `/dev/mpatha` during installation might not be the one that you expect it to be. Therefore, the [command]#clearpart# command could target the wrong disk.

  [option]#--asprimary#::  Forces the partition to be allocated as a *primary* partition. If the partition cannot be allocated as primary (usually due to too many primary partitions being already allocated), the partitioning process will fail. This option only makes sense when the disk uses a Master Boot Record (MBR); for GUID Partition Table (GPT)-labeled disks this option has no meaning. For information about primary (and extended) partitions, see xref:install/Installing_Using_Anaconda.adoc#sect-installation-gui-manual-partitioning-recommended[Recommended Partitioning Scheme].

  [option]#--fsprofile=#::  Specifies a _usage type_ to be passed to the program that makes a filesystem on this partition. A usage type defines a variety of tuning parameters to be used when making a filesystem. For this option to work, the filesystem must support the concept of usage types and there must be a configuration file that lists valid types. For `ext2`, `ext3`, `ext4`, this configuration file is `/etc/mke2fs.conf`.
