I have this 11.0 server running as a VMware guest. The SUSE system the server, the mounted file system has turned read-only.
This is a SUSE 11.0 guest running kernel 2.6.25.20-0.1-default #1 SMP 2008-12-12 20:30:38 +0100 x86_64 in a dual CPU setup. The VMware layer is VMware Server 1.0.8 running on SUSE host with dual Opteron and kernel 2.6.18.8-0.13-default #1 SMP Thu Nov 6 13:35:13 UTC 2008 x86_64.
Hm, ok. I had the same problem you describe with a vmware esx, but maybe this can help you: the problem was the kernel scsi-driver in the guest (I assume your guest has also an msi-logic scsi adapter). When the host disk-system was on high traffic, the underlying guest couldn't write his journaling entries to disk in the right amount of time. Before writing nonsense to disk, the guest system decided to go read-only. Solution was to install a top-notch kernel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
