It seems like you set it all up right but failback isn't working like 
it *seems* it should. (I have never needed it) If you're interested in 
a hack..

Since you don't seem to care how long it takes to failover, you could 
do the *opposite* of what this kbase recommends:

How can I improve the failover time of a faulty path when using 
device-mapper-multipath over iSCSI?

Aside from that I would suggest you open a support case with Red Hat 
if the box is covered under a support contract.
