similar to: Shutdown hangs on unmount of a gjournaled file system in 8-Stable

I wouldn't report this if not for one coincidence (which is described below). I have too little facts, so this is more of a mystery problem tale than a real problem report. There are two systems: 1. old, slow, i386, UP, 7-STABLE 2. new, fast, amd64, MP, 6.3-RELEASE Systems are located at different physical locations. What is common between them: 1. they both have the same backup strategy

Hi all, I was intending on trying out gjournal on a new disk i've added in my desktop. I had a look to see what the most recent patch provided by Pawel and found http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/patches/gjournal6_20061024.patch I created the directories as per Pawel's original post (http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2006-June/001962.html) and the patch succeeded with no failed

Hi, my FreeBSD-9/stable machine (FreeBSD freebsd-tower.goebo.site 9.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-PRERELEASE #2 r241044M: Sat Sep 29 12:52:01 CEST 2012 lbo@freebsd-tower.goebo.site:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386) crashes reproducibly when rsync-ing files to an NFSv4 share on the FreeBSD machine. The crash makes the system reboot. The crash creates files in /var/crash which may be obtained

Hello, I've been having spurrious crash troubles with this box a while now and I haven't been able to figure out why. I've ran a couple memtest passes on it and it didn't pick up anything. Here's a backtrace I've been able to obtain. The kernel config is at the end. It's the generic kernel with ULE. I'm following chapter 11 of the developers' handbook, so if

Hi, Recently I've decided to play with gjournal. Main reason was a promise of avoiding full fsck check after unclean shutdown. I've successfuly configured gjournal on existing filesystems (all UFS). And then it happened - my system had a power failure. After boot, it forced me to run fsck manualy. Nothing special, I did it before... But this time it failed on gjournaled disks.

Hello, I'm running 6.4-PRELEASE, last built on 2008-10-05 with /usr/src updated on the same day. I had a panic that looks to me very similiar to the one described here (hence the subject): http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2008-September/045405.html What caught my curiosity is the message: Unread portion of the kernel message buffer: acd0: WARNING - TEST_UNIT_READY read

Hi, after one month with gmirror and gjournal running on a 7.0-RELEASE #p2 amd64 (built from latest CVS source), the box hung a couple of times when on high disk load. Finally, while building some port it won't boot for no reason obvious to me. This is what I get with kernel.geom.mirror.debug=2: ata2-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=WDMA2 udma=UDMA133 cable=40 wire ad4: 476940MB <SAMSUNG HD501LJ

There are three sets of changes that would benefit stable/7. Namely, there are 1. Improvements for the UFS unmount or rw->ro remount, that perform suspension during the operation. The changes depend on the the suspension mechanism path, that introduced the suspension owner, and added new VFS OP into the mount method table. This might also fix the hangs with gjournal or

Here's a patch against 4.8-RELEASE kernel that allows disk writes on softupdates-enabled filesystems to be delayed for (theoretically) arbitrarily long periods of time. The motivation for such updating policy is surprisingly not purely suicidal - it can allow disks on laptops to spin down immediately after I/O operations and stay idle for longer periods of time, thus saving considerable amount

Hi, ok I know zfs-fuse is still incomplete and performance has not been considered, but still, before I''m going to use it for my /home I wanted a rough estimate. Another benchmark already asserted that zfs by itself, on Solaris, is a very fast beast (http://cmynhier.blogspot.com/2006/05/zfs-benchmarking.html), faster than ext3 on Linux and also faster than UFS. Interestingly UFS seems

Hello, freebsd-stable. Does somebody use some software RAID5 on FreeBSD in real production system? I want to build storage server for my home: RAW photos, multi-layer PhotoShop files and FLAC-encoded music consume a lot of space, and they should be availible both from desktop & notebook. Also, all photo-content is unique, so I need some insuranse from single HDD crash. I understand,

Hello, I have a FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE amd64 box which gives this message with apache 2.2 very often. Previously the contents of the box was on 6.3-STABLE x86 and I had no such problems.

Setting up the wpi driver for wireless freezes the system on boot with the following error: wpi0 requested unsupported memory range wpi0: could not allocate memory resource It lists a pcbi device (pcbi4 i think) and an actual memory range, but since I have to reboot using kernel.old the /var/run/dmesg.boot is wiped with the info.

Hello Got strange problem with high system "%system load" and very slow user level programs (apache+php+mysql) behavior gstat shows 1.5-4% hard disk busy load but system shows about 20-30% load while user load is max 5%. vmstat shows from 2 to 35 process in "b" state. Now use 7.0-RELEASE-p5 , but the same problem was with 7.0-RELEASE. And have no idea what to do with this.

I have a current RELENG_7 running on: http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/4U/7045/SYS-7045B-TR+.cfm with the -3+ IPMI card.

Hello, I''m quite interested in ZFS, like everybody else I suppose, and am about to install FBSD with ZFS. On that note, i have a different first question to start with. I personally am a Linux fanboy, and would love to see/use ZFS on linux. I assume that I can use those ZFS disks later with any os that can work/recognizes ZFS correct? e.g. I can install/setup ZFS in FBSD, and later use

Hello everybody, we recently got three Dell PowerEdge servers equipped with Qlogic QLE2462 cards (dual FC 4Gbps ports) and an EMC CLARiiON CX3-40 SAN. The servers with the FC cards were successfully and extensively tested with an older SUN StorEdge T3 SAN. However, when we connect them to the CX3-40, create and mount a new partition and then do something as simple as "tar -C /san -xf
