similar to: hdparm strange behaviour on centos 5.0 using the latest kernel

I need to disable the spin-down on an external USB drive because it spins down spontaneously while in use. The drive forgets the spindown-disable state across power outage so I need to reissue the hdparm command with each boot or hotplug. Where should I put the hdparm command to do this?

Can someone please explain what's wrong here. And how to solve it. I run CentOS-4.1 MSI K8N Neo Platinum Athlon 3000 Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 S-ATA disc [root at amd64 kai]# /sbin/hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 2808 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1402.81 MB/sec HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device Timing buffered disk reads:

I believe I've posted before about one of the speed issues we were having, of backups taking many, many hours that should *not* take that long. My manager and I finally nailed it down to the h/d itself. Identical boxes, and he tried a backup of one system which took under two hours, while the same regular one rand nearly six. I'd been googling on and off for weeks, and this morning, ran

At the present moment, my guest is running inside qemu and host is kvm intel, running Ubuntu 14.04, kernel is 4.3.0 stable. From within the guest, when I run "hdparm -i /dev/sdb" on the guest, I get: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument as the error,but on the host, I will get the full harddisk/SSD info. Can I know how to resolve this so that the output is the same for both

Hi, I was wanting to run the equivalent of "hdparm -Tt /dev/hda" except on a SATA hard disk. What is the equivalent command for an SATA drive? I was wanting to see what kind of speed I am getting on the SATA drive. thanks, Jerry

I've got a brand new .5U P4 system running several (I think) Seagate 80gig SATA drives. I tried to copy data from the first drive (sda) to the second drive (sdc) and was only getting about 1.7megs/sec. So I figured DMA was off. And this is what happened when I typed "hdparm -d1 /dev/hdc": /dev/hdc: setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted

Hi, I run a little router/firewall that also acts as a print server for the linux and win98 clients on the LAN. I have the harddisk configured so that if there is little activity, it spins down (hdparm -S 12 /dev/hda). I added smbd/nmbd today and with the two services running, the hard disk drive spins down but wakes up about every 12 minutes. Without the services, only a major event causes them

Hi guys, I''ve seen this post regarding "lvm resize" and this contains all the information I need to resize a disk inside domU : http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-11/msg00019.html >From this post: "With this I can extend the LVs in the Dom0, and either shutdown the DomU and resize2fs from Dom0 or even (tested on test VMs and low-use

This was an email I sent to xen-devel a while ago without getting a response. I''m reposting it here in case someone knows more. Hello all, I''m able to consistently reproduce lockups in my domU with heavy I/O with the following error: 36841.420662] INFO: task rsyslogd:15014 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Hi, I copied my root filesystem from one box to a harddisk partition /dev/sda8. I started fdisk /dev/sda and added a bootable flag to partition 8. Then I mounted /dev/sda8, chrooted into it, and ran a grub-install hd0. Then I unmounted it, and tried to start the PVM host, but it ends short after the try to start for the following reason: xm create /etc/xen/vm/VM3 -c Using config file

Hello, I hope this is the mailing list to discuss this issue, but if not sorry for spamming! I just discovered a really slow IO performance on DomUs running debian wheezy over wheezy dom0s, any operation that requires disk read or write takes a lot of time. Here are the hardware parameters: Single Xeon 5120 (dual core) 8GB of ram Hardware raid 2x250GB drives raid 1 his is the configuration

In my haste for help, I stupidly hit reply and changed the subject which I thought was enough for a new message, not giving much thought for the threading, etc. So apologies for the hijack, although I would think it fairly obvious that it wasn't deliberate or obvious to me... or a big deal really. My mail doesn't thread. Some further info for those actually interested in helping, I forgot
