Actually I got this on 3 VMs on my Azure Pack. One 15.10 and two 14.04.03. On 15.10 I tried to fsck the root fs before reboot. What could go wrong as fs is already read-only I thought. Here is the session:
~# touch /oioi touch: cannot touch '/oioi': Read-only file system ~# fsck / <--- At this point it corrupted everything already. fsck from util-linux 2.26.2 e2fsck 1.42.12 (29-Aug-2014) cloudimg-rootfs: recovering journal fsck.ext4: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to re-open cloudimg-rootfs cloudimg-rootfs: ********** WARNING: Filesystem still has errors ********** ~# fsck -f / fsck from util-linux 2.26.2 fsck.ext4: Unable to resolve 'UUID=5370f2f3-e06a-4682-bc53-2f844792ebe1' ~# ls -la / total 0 After reboot grub said it cannot find FS so I booted it from another HDD and fcsked from that. It reported a lot of errors but rendered the FS as explained before - everything in lost+found. On 14.04 I rebooted without fsck. After boot it said that FS i corrupted so I can Skip mounting it (what root?) or try Manualy fix it. So I pressed the M but it looked like it's frozen. Luckily I restored all VMs from the backup. Yes, the very same backup that actually triggered the issue as we found it's 100% correlated that the corruption happens when the backup job starts on HV. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470250 Title: [Hyper-V] Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Generation 2 SCSI Errors on VSS Based Backups To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1470250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
