Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
apt 0.7.25.3ubuntu9.3 for amd64 compiled on Sep 9 2010 22:31:26 Linux cobalt 2.6.32-24-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 20 15:38:55 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Description: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Release: 10.04 apt-get upgrade seems to spin up idle drives unnecessarily. In a two drive machine where sda is system and sdb is an idle data drive: apt-get update will update the necessary files and leaves sbd spun down. apt-get upgrade upgrades files on sda but also spins up sdb even though no updated files reside on sdb. I would only expect sbd to spin up if data needed to to updated on sdb ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- apt-get upgrade spins up idle drives https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/641426 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
