I'm attempting to build a virtual disk image for qemu of CentOS4 on CentOS4. I'm having a problem after using yum --installroot to put a minimal filesystem on a partition located within the virtual disk. When I go to unmount it, I get "device is busy" errors. I know that I haven't left anything using that filesystem and lsof doesn't show anything, so I'm wondering

Good evening, Distro: ClearOS 6.3 (RHEL-derived with a distro-specific web configuration tool for samba) I'm only about 90% sure it's version 6.3. Samba version: 3.6.10-1.v6 Intended use: NT4-style PDC for Windows XP clients Issue: My distro's "add machine script" uses the output of "net getdomainsid" to help populate the new machine account's sambaSID field

when you have something smbmounted with samba.. //ADMINISTRATOR@CALVIN_SR/M$ 112G 71G 41G 64% /mnt/samba and you unmount it and it gives you /mnt/samba is busy Im absolutely positive that I am NOT in the /mnt/samba dir, nor is anyone else. is there any way to force it to unmount? Jason

Using the Disk Management GUI. I mounted the floppy copied a file to it by dragging from one Nautilus window to another Then I tried to unmount the floppy and got an error that the device (/media/floppy) was busy. This is not the first time this has happened to me. And it does not happen all the time. In fact, yesterday I did the exact same steps with no problem.

I'm trying to understand why a normal user is not allowed to unmount their USB stick? I think it is most likely a udev rule. does anyone know ? Thanks Phil.

Hi All, How do I unmount an NFS share when the NFS server is unaivalable?

Greetings, I am trying to use vfs_shadow_copy2 with samba samba-4.2.7. I have a share exported at /export/smb400/. A snapshot of the share is on a separate block device, which is mounted at /export_shadows/volume-00000001/@GMT-2016.02.08-11.48.00/. Samba configuration for the share is: vfs objects = shadow_copy2 shadow:snapdir = /export_shadows/volume-00000001 shadow:fixinodes = yes (Note: I

Is there any method of forcibly umounting an NFS mounted directory? We have a test environment managed under puppet that is also our DR environment. In a DR scenario we''ll be umounting all NFS shares from out test array and remounting to our DR array. However, as this is a test environment we have users logged on, so when Puppet attempts to unmount the test directories, it fails

Hi Jeremy, The use case is that we want to automatically rotate the snapshots. For example, we want to keep 24 hourly snapshots, and every hour we create a new snapshot and unmount the oldest one. But since customers can be restoring from the oldest snapshot right now, it is not deterministic when we will be able to unmount the oldest snapshot. So at that moment we want all active restore

Doing this would reliably fail with -EBUSY for me: # mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/scratch; umount /mnt/scratch; mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb2 ... unable to open /dev/sdb2: Device or resource busy because mkfs.btrfs tries to open the device O_EXCL, and somebody still has it. Using systemtap to track bdev gets & puts shows a kworker thread doing a blkdev put after mkfs attempts a get; this is left over

I''m running into a situation where I can''t unmount a mounted snapshot. It shows "busy" even though neither lsof nor fuser show any open files. Umount -f doesn''t work although umount -l does. Is there anything else I can do to debug this scenario or to clear the busy status myself? Or am I down to rebooting each time? This is on stock ubuntu-10.04, x86.

Greetings - Ok, I made a mistake that I need to fix. Fortunately it is not a destructive mistake, but I need some advice on how to correct the problem. CentOS 6.3 host system named Earth I was creating some new logical volumes within my exiting volume group for a new virtual machine using the LVM GUI. When I created the LV that I plan to use for root partition of the new VM (Bacteria) I

Hi I am having a problem deleting snapshots, gluster is failing to unmount them.

Hi, Is it possible to unmount an USB-stick from my Windows application so that I'm sure the data is completely written to the stick? Thanks in advance, Gino D

So if you have a mount command that doesn''t use /etc/mtab then it will spit out a different device for the mounted device. So say we have SCRATCH_DEV_POOL="/dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc" we will turn this into SCRATCH_DEV="/dev/sda" SCRATCH_DEV_POOL="/dev/sdb /dev/sdc" and then when you mkfs this you do _scratch_mkfs $SCRATCH_DEV_POOL which turns into this
