Ocs agent failures on RHEL8/Alma Linux 8

Hi,

I'm deploying ocs agent from epel rpm on Alma Linux 8 OS which is based on RHEL8 following the ocsinventory documentation. I have some trouble when executing the agent and many error messages:

[root@most6ltmb219 ~]# ocsinventory-agent

Mar 06 11:11:52 | /etc/multipath.conf does not exist, blacklisting all devices.
Mar 06 11:11:52 | You can run "/sbin/mpathconf --enable" to create

Mar 06 11:11:52 | DM multipath kernel driver not loaded

Datas are uploaded to the server but as the command is run with root privileges, all these messages are worrisome. Multipath is not setup but the software is a requiered dependancy for some virtualization tools.
Thanks for your advices

This is not an answer but an additionnal problem:
launching ocsinventory-agent on a C6100 server running Alma Linux 8.7 returns:

[root@ekman ~]# ocsinventory-agent -i -f
error: While opening repository /root/.local/share/flatpak/repo: opening repo: Invalid UTF-8
sh: line 1: 170829 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) monitor-get-edid-using-vbe --port 0 2> /dev/null

and the server crashes. sad

I'm using ocsinventory-agent-2.9.3-1.el8.x86_64 from from the rpm packaging.

Any suggestion is welcome.
