Hello List,
on two systems newly upgraded to Leap 15.0, I'm seeing strange block devices: e.g. with four HDDs, the system runs fine for a while (say, a week), then additional block devices /dev/sde ... /dev/sdh appear, and any process calling open() on them hangs in disk sleep. Has anyone seen something similar? Do you have any idea how to isolate the process that creates these?
Thanks a lot,
A.
Check serial numbers of all devices. If the serial numbers are not unique, you may have multiple paths to your devices. Then you should consider using multipathing. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/121757/harddisk-serial-number-from-... http://www.sourceware.org/lvm2/wiki/MultipathUsageGuide
