Wondering if anyone here might better be able to diagnose an issue we're seeing, or point me to some guidelines for this sort of thing. There are two machines with identical hardware, both running Red Hat 7.3's stock SMP kernel (required due to third party software). Both have come down with the same symptoms after having run fine for a number of months. The initial errors were these:

Hi, Apologies, this is going to be quite long - I'm going to provide as much info as possible. I'm running a system with ext3 fs on software RAID. The RAID set-up is as shown below: jlm@nijinsky:~$ cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid5] read_ahead 1024 sectors md0 : active raid1 hdc1[1] hda1[0] 96256 blocks [2/2] [UU] md5 : active raid1 hdk1[1] hde1[0]

Hi, yesterday I upgraded my kernel to 2.4.15-pre6 (after months of using only ac-kernels) and had my first ext3-error since 0.0.3 . syslog tells me : Nov 20 18:16:31 enterprise kernel: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)): ext3_readdir: bad entry in directory #47390: inode out of bounds - offset=0, inode=404363549, rec_len=4096, name_len=23 and the system remounted /usr to ro.

I installed a 4.1 x86_64 with kernel 2.6.9-11.ELsmp (rpm) initially. My box is tyan 5350 and a SATA harddisk The install was successful and the harddisk was detected as /dev/sdaX But strangely, when I first reboot my machine. The harddisk change to /dev/hdaX What is the problem ? Below are some of dmesg output hda: WDC WD1200JD-00HBB0, ATA DISK drive Probing IDE interface ide1... Probing IDE

Hi, I have built a Red Hat 7.2 system kernel 2.4.7-10 using pxelinux from syslinux-2.09 I have then installed the latest Broadcom BCM5700 Linux Driver Version 7.1.22 as per the README.TXT:- rpm -ivh bcm5700-7.1.22-1.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec rpm -ivh --force RPMS/i386/bcm5700-7.1.22-1.i386.rpm The system reboots fine and is using the new driver I now want to update my

hi all, I installed v3.2 from source and now dom0 is booting well. But when I tried to start domU it shows the following error message and seems hanging.

We have several large ext3 file system partitions. One of them sets itself to read-only after getting journel problems. I understand that's a good thing, but obviously I need to correct the problem so that it will stop locking itself. Here are some details; OS is Redhat EL4 x86_64 running on a SunFire v40z, kernel is 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp. The disk storage in question is external, via

I had a busy mailserver fail on me the other day. Below is what was printed in dmesg. We first suspected a hardware failure (raid controller or something else), so we moved the drives to another (identical hardware) machine and ran fsck. Fsck complained ("short read while reading inode") and asked if I wanted to ignore and rewrite (which I did). After booting up again, the problem came

Hello, I have a server running ext3. The server is a dell poweredge 2500 with a 100G raid 0 on a Perc3/Di raid card (aacraid driver). I've asked about this on the aacraid devel list, and no one had any solutions, and I'm not the only one having this problem, because another person on there replied with nearly the same error message as I am getting. Anyway, anywhere from once every few

I got a I/O error on one of my disks that caused the journal to abort (error below) and be mounted in read only mode. I rebooted and the file system check ran automatically and resolved the error. I did some searching around and couldn't find a likely cause (the disk is a virtual disk, shared from a SAN for VMWare ESXi5.0). An hour after bringing the system back up, we got another one.

[Re-sending to the ext3 list, with minor edits] I'm in the process of fixing errors generated by the Coverity tool on the Linux kernel, and I would like your comment on a set of problems reported in ext3. The main issue reported is not checking the return code of ext3_journal_get_write_access() in various places. I would like to know if there should be error handling in these cases. The

Hi, I'm using ext3 filesystems in embedded devices (storage is on 512Mb or 1Gb CF cards). A typical development cycle would see the filesystem created on the desktop PC running linux 2.4 (eg. RedHat 9). The CF card would be installed in the hardware and linux 2.4 (eg. Montavista Pro 3.1, on PPC) would boot from the CF. Recently I tried a linux 2.6 desktop (CentOS) for the same task and

Hello everybody I would like to build a bootable CD from my running SuSE 7.3 Kernel 2.4.10. The goal is to have a prebuilt system on CD which would install everything from a compressed image on the same CD, some kind of an emergency or initial setup CD. So I startet with an directory called root_tree, placed the isolinux directory and the binaries there. I copied the initrd from the /boot

I sent this report sometime ago to l-k and to the preempt-patch maintainer, but omitted to send a copy here, where some people could have clues about the problem - so here it is: ----- Forwarded message ----- To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Robert Love <rml@tech9.net> Subject: oops with 2.4.18 and preempt patch, on SMP + ext3 machine Coming back home tonight, I found my machine in a bad

I guess this could be filed under the 'shot myself in the foot' section, but I figured I'd report it anyways.. Kernel 2.5.50-bk6, x86, preempt, PIIX IDE, ext3 fs. I dd'ed the first part of a ext3 partition to tmp, then mounted it via loopback. (the image passed a fsck, except for warning about corrupt part. table or superblock) I tried to 'cd' into a directory within
