[Bug 136804] Re: dmraid not correctly detecting nforce raid
Hello! I'm experiencing almost exactly the same problem as Alan and Patrick with my RAID controller (Promise Fasttrak TX2300). In Ubuntu 7.10, this worked fine, however since the upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04 (2.6.24-16 kernel), the "dmraid" is not able to find the "/dev/mapper/pdc_*" devices. As mentioned, the symptoms are practically the same as the ones from Alan and Patrick: 1) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmraid -ay - - WARN: locking /var/lock/dmraid/.lock NOTICE: /dev/sdb: asr discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: ddf1discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: hpt37x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: hpt45x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: isw discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: jmicron discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: lsi discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: nvidia discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: pdc discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: pdc metadata discovered NOTICE: /dev/sdb: sil discovering NOTICE: /dev/sdb: via discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: asr discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: ddf1discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: hpt37x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: hpt45x discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: isw discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: jmicron discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: lsi discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: nvidia discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: pdc discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: pdc metadata discovered NOTICE: /dev/sda: sil discovering NOTICE: /dev/sda: via discovering DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: not found pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: not found pdc_bgidgcdjhb NOTICE: added /dev/sdb to RAID set "pdc_bgidgcdjhb" DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: found pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: searching pdc_bgidgcdjhb DEBUG: _find_set: found pdc_bgidgcdjhb NOTICE: added /dev/sda to RAID set "pdc_bgidgcdjhb" DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/sda" DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/sdb" DEBUG: set status of set "pdc_bgidgcdjhb" to 16 DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/sda" DEBUG: checking pdc device "/dev/sdb" DEBUG: set status of set "pdc_bgidgcdjhb" to 16 WARN: unlocking /var/lock/dmraid/.lock DEBUG: freeing devices of RAID set "pdc_bgidgcdjhb" DEBUG: freeing device "pdc_bgidgcdjhb", path "/dev/sda" DEBUG: freeing device "pdc_bgidgcdjhb", path "/dev/sdb" 2) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmraid -n /dev/sdb (pdc): 0x000 promise_id: "Promise Technology, Inc." 0x018 unknown_0: 0x2 0x01c magic_0: 0x645a1023 0x020 unknown_1: 0x1000e 0x024 magic_1: 0x645a1023 0x028 unknown_2: 0xe 0x200 raid.flags: 0xfdfeffc0 0x204 raid.unknown_0: 0x7 0x205 raid.disk_number: 1 0x206 raid.channel: 1 0x207 raid.device: 0 0x208 raid.magic_0: 0x4a7f1023 0x20c raid.unknown_1: 0x1000e 0x210 raid.unknown_2: 0x0 0x214 raid.disk_secs: 625011376 0x218 raid.unknown_3: 0x 0x21c raid.unknown_4: 0x1 0x21e raid.status: 0xf 0x21f raid.type: 0x1 0x220 raid.total_disks: 2 0x221 raid.raid0_shift: 7 0x222 raid.raid0_disks: 1 0x223 raid.array_number: 0 0x224 raid.total_secs: 625011328 0x228 raid.cylinders: 38904 0x22a raid.heads: 254 0x22b raid.sectors: 63 0x22c raid.magic_1: 0x645a1023 0x230 raid.unknown_5: 0x10e 0x234 raid.disk[0].unknown_0: 0x7 0x236 raid.disk[0].channel: 0 0x237 raid.disk[0].device: 0 0x238 raid.disk[0].magic_0: 0x4a7e1023 0x23c raid.disk[0].disk_number: 14 0x240 raid.disk[1].unknown_0: 0x107 0x242 raid.disk[1].channel: 1 0x243 raid.disk[1].device: 0 0x244 raid.disk[1].magic_0: 0x4a7f1023 0x248 raid.disk[1].disk_number: 65550 0x7fc checksum: 0x6e502afd Ok /dev/sda (pdc): 0x000 promise_id: "Promise Technology, Inc." 0x018 unknown_0: 0x2 0x01c magic_0: 0x645a1023 0x020 unknown_1: 0xe 0x024 magic_1: 0x645a1023 0x028 unknown_2: 0xe 0x200 raid.flags: 0xfdfeffc0 0x204 raid.unknown_0: 0x7 0x205 raid.disk_number: 0 0x206 raid.channel: 0 0x207 raid.device: 0 0x208 raid.magic_0: 0x4a7e1023 0x20c raid.unknown_1: 0xe 0x210 raid.unknown_2: 0x0 0x214 raid.disk_secs: 625011376 0x218 raid.unknown_3: 0x 0x21c raid.unknown_4: 0x1 0x21e raid.status: 0xf 0x21f raid.type: 0x1 0x220 raid.total_disks: 2 0x221 raid.raid0_shift: 7 0x222 raid.raid0_disks: 1 0x223 raid.array_number: 0 0x224 raid.total_secs: 625011328 0x228 raid.cylinders: 38904 0x22a raid.heads: 254 0x22b raid.sectors: 63 0x22c raid.magic_1: 0x645a1023 0x230 raid.unknown_5: 0x10e 0x234 raid.disk[0].unknown_0: 0x7 0x236 raid.disk[0].channel: 0 0x237 raid.disk[0].device: 0 0x238 raid.disk[0].magic_0: 0x4a7e1023 0x23c raid.disk[0].disk_number: 14 0x240 raid.disk[1].unknown_0: 0x107 0x242 raid.disk[1].channel: 1 0x243 raid.disk[1].device: 0 0x244 raid.disk[1].magic_0: 0x4a7f1023 0x248 raid.disk[1].disk_number: 65550 0x7fc checksum: 0x6e4c29fd Ok 3) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmraid -b /dev/sdb:625142448 total, "6QF26BGJ" /dev/sda:625142448 total, "6QF24HPH" Has anybody perhaps figured out where the problem is? -- dmraid not correctly detecting nforce raid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136804 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, w
[Bug 136804] Re: dmraid not correctly detecting nforce raid
Hello guys! Today I used the Knoppix 5.1 live CD in which "dmraid" works ok (Alan, thanks for the tip... ;) ). I managed to mount my raid partitions and repair the "grub/menu.lst" file (I have come across this dmraid issue while trying to fix the "menu.lst" file which became broken during the upgrade from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04). Now, here comes an interesting part: as soon as I fixed the "menu.lst" file, I was able to boot my upgraded Ubuntu 8.04 system without a problem! The "dmraid" works ok, even though I'm using the Ubuntu's "2.6.24-16-generic" kernel (i.e. the same kernel version as is present on the Ubuntu 8.04 live CD). However, I would still like to figure out why dmraid doesn't work on Ubuntu 8.04 live CD. Now that I have 2 configurations (one working and one not), can you perhaps advise me which printouts/log files to compare to spot the source of the problem? I can of course upload them to this page: you can probably find the anomalies much faster than I. :) -- dmraid not correctly detecting nforce raid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/136804 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 136804] Re: dmraid not correctly detecting nforce raid
Hello Vojta! Yes indeed! Your advice also solves my issue! If I execute the "swapoff -a" command after the Ubuntu 8.04 has started, the dmraid package work fine and I'm able to see all of my RAID partitions in "/dev/mapper/" directory!
