similar to: Need information about journal abortion and its relation with remounting

Hi, Apologies in advance for any breaches of netiquette, I couldn't find any guidelines about submission to this forum but I'd be grateful for your help on something. My /boot filesystem is being remounted shortly after start-up as read-only. I get the following messages... journal_bmap_Ra7a5f568: journal block not found at offset 12 on ide0(3,1) Aborting journal on device ide0(3,1)

While compiling two kernels and untarring a third, my root fs was remounted r/w and I got the following in dmesg (kernel 2.4.19-pre9): EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,2)) in ext3_new_inode: error 28 Aborting journal on device ide0(3,2). ext3_abort called EXT3-fs abort (device ide0(3,2)): ext3_journal_start: Detected aborted journal. Remounting filesystem read-only Remounting filesystem read-only

All, We are encountering spurious errors with ext3. After some period of heavy IO we may see messages similiar to: EXT3-fs error (device cciss/c0d0p5) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted When this happens the filesystem is remounted read-only. If it's the root filesystem the system becomes unresponsive and must be rebooted. An fsck on the affected filesystem shows lots of corruption.

I have several CentOS5 hosts in a VMware ESX 3.5.0 226117 environment using iSCSI storage. Recently we've begun to experience journal aborts resulting in remounted-read-only filesystems as well as other filesystem issues - I can unmount a filesystem and force a check with "fsck -f" and occasionally find errors. I've found -

Hi, I'm running a production server (Debian Sarge install) whose root filesystem (a software raid 1 array of 2 partitions of IDE drive) exhibited the following problem: Oct 28 06:00:06 server2 kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Oct 28 06:00:06 server2 kernel: md2: rw=1, want=3050401328, limit=16353920 [...] a few of the above line snipped, want is different each time Oct 28

Hello, I looked through the archives a bit and could not find anything relevant, if you know otherwise please point me in the right direction. I have a ~3T ext3 filesystem on linux software raid that had been behaving corectly for sometime. Not to long ago it gave the following error after trying to mount it: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0, or too many

Hi! I was testing 2.6.0-test5, but got lots of journal aborted errors. Then I Sysrq-s/u/b and wanted to boot 2.4.23-pre3 or 2.4.22, but ext3 error: cannot find root fs cannot mount because of unsupported optional feature (4) after trying to mount it with ext2 (rootfstype=ext2, not working) I rebooted again into 2.4.22, this time there was just severe fs corrpution, illegal blocks, inodes,

I recently came across an enormous cluster of x86 clone machines running fedora core 1 (2.4.24) which have typically all intel or amd have VIA IDE chipsets. They frequently experience corrupted journals rendering the ext3 partition in read-only mode. More important than recovering the filesystem, I am interested in finding the root of the problem. The common hardware that all of these

Can anyone comment on whether or not it is possible to successfully disable the journal of an ext3 root file system prior to reboot? My application is to try and make sure there is no journal prior to installing and rebooting into a system which does not support ext3. I know that as long as the root is cleanly remounted r/o with no journal updates pending, this will be compatible. I'm

Hi all. I have two hosts with drbd: kmod-drbd83-8.3.8-1.el5.centos drbd83-8.3.8-1.el5.centos and kernel (CentOS 5.7): 2.6.18-308.4.1.el5 After a recent upgrade of kernel I have had two sitiuations when my ext3 filesystem on /dev/drbd0 became read-only. I've checked disks with smartctl -t long, they are ok. There are no messages with disks problems in /var/log/messages | dmesg. I've made

Hi all, I'm trying to resize a journal on my root filesystem. This is Ext3, kernel 2.4.19, latest e2fsprogs + htree patch. I've remounted my root filesystem as ext2, but still when I 'tune2fs -O ^has_journal' I get ---- The has_journal flag may only be cleared when the filesystem is unmounted or mounted read-only. ---- So, how can I increase the size of the journal? I

Several people already reported this at linux-kernel and elsewhere with no answers, I thought perhaps this would be a more adequate forum... [1.] One line summary of the problem: After I/O, journal is aborted and filesystems made read-only. [2.] Full description of the problem/report: One can't anymore write to the affected file systems. Upon investigation, ext3fs journal was aborted

Having just spent a day trying to recover a deleted ext3 file for a friend, I'm wondering about this way of maintining undelete information in ext3, like is done for ext2: The last step in the deletion process would be to put back the (previously zeroed) block pointers. Since it gets logged to the journal, I _think_ that this should be safe. The worst that would happen is that, if the plug

Hi In our office environment few servers mostly database servers and yesterday it happened for one application server(first time) the partion is getting "read only". I was checking the archives, found may be similar kind of issues in the 2007-July archives. But how it has been solved if someone describes me that will be really helpful. In our case, just at the problem started found

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I created all my ext3 partitions a while back, so the journal.dat file is visable. I'd like to remove them and use the new tune2fs functionality. Can I just mount the drives as ext2, rm journal.dat, tune2fs -j /dev/hd?? and then remount as ext3? Or am I missing something? thanks! - -- Douglas J. Hunley (Linux User #174778)

Hi. I woke up this morning to find a ton of waiting emails complaining that some cron jobs on my system couldn't run because one of my filesystems (ext3 on software RAID 1) was suddenly mounted read-only. Always nice when you're away from the server due to travel. ;^> I investigated in the logs and found: 2007-08-02 04:02:25 kern.crit www kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md2):

Greetings, I recently cpio-ed some user directories onto a new ext3 partion. After putting this file server's partition into production, I noticed a .journal file in the root directory of the partition dated well before the creation of this partition. I think this .journal file was copied over from the old filesystem and I am concerned that I over-wrote this current filesystem's
