Hello List,
I have been running Oracle 9i on a dual-Opteron system running the following kernel:
Linux cumae 2.4.21-226-smp #1 SMP Tue Jun 15 09:04:44 UTC 2004 x86_64 unknown
and I've been getting a lot of these messages in /var/log/messages:
Oct 10 10:40:09 cumae modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module block-major-65 Oct 10 10:40:52 cumae last message repeated 30 times ...
Does anyone know what this might be? Does this have something to do with major IDs of device special files? Checking /dev, I see files with major number of 65 are SCSI disk devices. I am running an Escalade 7508 PATA RAID card, which presents its drives to the OS as SCSI devices. BUt I have not had any problems with it.
block major 65 is /dev/sdq and following. Probably your database is misconfigured and tries to access non existant SCSI devices. -Andi
