The included halt script is the last kind of modification I did: if "mount -o remount,ro /" fails, control is left to the shell. In the attached boot.fail.msg, mount -o remount failed and so I've done some dump like: lsof fuser -va / ps axuwwwwww and finally a strace -f mount -o remount,ro / >>/var/log/boot.fail.msg 2>&1 I know, probably in last "strace" the fail of the remount,ro can be caused by the strace itself but I don't know how to avoid it. After last strace, I issued a logout and correctly mount -o remount,ro / had a success run so session had a graceful shutdown. A little notice: After exit to shell,I firstly issued a "ps auxwwww" without redirecting its output to /var/log, I noticed that there was a zombie process (it was bacula-sd), after that I tryied to mount readonly the root without success and then I issued some diagnostic command (ps, lsof, fuser) redirecting output to /var/log/boot.fail.msg and then I close the session with a logout, and the halt script retryied successfully the mount remount,ro process. Examining the log on the next session, I noticed that in ps axuwwwww command I redirected to /var/log/boot.fail.msg doesn't appear any bacula-sd process.... Can be possible that after a while the zombie process exited and then it left the / filesystem free to be remounted RO? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
