http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630434 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630434#c0 Summary: Server refuses to boot, while used iSCSI based non "/" file system is not available. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SLES 11 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: DOlsson(a)WEB.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100626 SUSE/3.6.6-1.1 Firefox/3.6.6 On our SLES 11 GM based "mirror" server (running as a virtual XEN guest), we are using iSCSI to attach to our NAS holding the "/data" file system, whereas all other file systems (/, /boot, /var, /home) are placed on local disk. When rebooting the server, it refuses to boot correctly, while it is not able to "fsck" the "/data" file system -- The system stops in "(repair filesystem) #" mode (after having entered the "root" password). Using the "nofail" option for the "/data" file system helps to get the system to reboot correctly, but in this case the "/data" file system is neither being checked nor mounted during the system startup, which therefore -- once again -- makes the system unusable! Using the "nofail" option is part of the "solution" listed in the SLES 11 SP1 documentation, but since the system is unusable, this is *not* the solution to the problem. The problem is that the "mkinitrd" is and the boot scripts are not capable of handling iSCSI attached file systems correctly. The correct way of handling iSCSI attached devices are: - All iSCSI devices having the "onboot" set as node startup setting must be attached during the "initrd" boot sequence (i.e. by "boot.open-iscsi") -- and this *independent* of whether the "/" (root) file system is attached via iSCSI or not, - All iSCSI devices having the "automatic" set as node startup setting need to be attached during the normal booting sequence (i.e. by "open-iscsi"), - All iSCSI devices having the "manual" set as node startup setting should be left alone. Using such a attaching schema will ensure that a server is capable of being booted with all its iSCSI file systems being attached, checked and mounted. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1a. Setup an iSCSI device and mount it e.g. as "/home" (no changes to "/etc/fstab"). 2a. Reboot the system 3a. System fails to boot, while "/home" is not available. 1b. Setup an iSCSI device and mount it e.g. as "/home", and add the "nofail" option in "/etc/fstab" to the "/home" mount point. 2b. Reboot system. 3b. System boots, but "/home" is neither checked nor mounted! Actual Results: When using iSCSI devices for non root file systems - the system is not able to boot, when the file system on the iSCSI device is listed in "/etc/fstab" as a file system that should be mounted or - the system boots boots, when the file system on the iSCSI device has been marked with "nofail" in "/etc/fstab", but the file is neither being checked nor it is being mounted. Expected Results: System boots with all file systems listed in "/etc/fstab" being checked and mounted independently of whether they are on local or iSCSI attached disks. -- 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.
