Red Hat :: Mapping /proc/scsi/scsi Entries With Respective Device Names In /dev/ Directory

Apr 11, 2011

In my understanding, the way /proc/scsi/scsi gets populated, /proc/paritions also gets populated in the same fashion. i.e. the description for first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi can be seen in the first entry of /proc/partitions and same for rest.

So, With this assumption, in my project, I used to relate first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi with first entry of /proc/partitions to get its total size and same for all entries.

But, I observed some differences in following scenario, where

1) The first 4 entries in /proc/scsi/scsi are SAN luns attached to my system and for which the actual device names in /dev/ are sda,sdb,sdc and sdd.

2) The last 4 entries are the internal HDDs on same system. In /dev/, their respective device names are sde,sdf,sdg & sdh.

(Output attached at end of the thread)

But in /proc/partitions, the device order is different.

You can see their respective sizes in /proc/partition output as well.

So, my question is, in this particular scenario, I can't relate the first entry of /proc/scsi/scsi with first entry of /proc/partition. i.e. scsi0:00:00:00 is not /dev/sde, because it is actually /dev/sda.

It seems that my assumption is wrong in this scenario.

Is there any way or mechanism to figure out actual device name for an entry in /proc/scsi/scsi in /dev/ directory?

How can my application should relate /proc/scsi/scsi entries with their respective device names and sizes?

Server :: Adding Scsi Device Won't Show Up In Fdisk

Jul 27, 2011

I created a new disk on our scsi san. I then ran the following command: echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan. did that command for each host. and in dmesg, it shows it found a device /dev/sdg. but when i do a fdisk -l. It never lists /dev/sdg. I just did this other day on another server and it worked fine like that. This is RH 4.8.

Ubuntu :: Boot Failure - Error No Such Device

Jul 27, 2010

I installed from a live disc months ago. It worked fine for a while, don't remember what caused the change.

Now when I boot, I get this message:

Quote:

I have several hdds in this desktop box, one other has a OS on it, has the Hardy version. But i disconnected that (it all used to work with both drives connected and I was able to use that boot menu to change from one OS to the other). I can boot by getting to "boot menu" by pushing the "esc" key when the bios starts (just after the beep). It gives the option to start from, with a list of possible devices to choose from. I don't know where this menu is from, bios or other. I select hard drive, then select the correct hard drive and it starts right up. That is nonsense though. I really no longer need version 8.04 but keep it as a backup in case my preferred OS/hdd fails.

Hardware :: Scsi Device Is Not Available In Enclosure After Hot Plugging

Jan 15, 2010

One of my servers contains two scsi enclosures. After hot removing a disk and hot adding another the new disk gets assigned a device file but the enclosure (in sysfs) doesn't want to see it.

How can I force the enclosure to recognise the hot added disk.

Situation in sysfs:

The link device is dead after hot removing the device and keeps vanished after hot adding the new device. The hot added device gets assigned a device file and it is reachable. Even

Doesn't change anything.

How can I force the link to be updated towards.

Hardware :: SCSI Hard Disk Device Node Creation

Mar 26, 2010

I am developing for a Linux based device for which the HOT PLUG option is deactivated. As part of optimizing the code, we also don't want to create device files for unused devices. We understand that both USB attached and fixec SCSI hard disks would create device files like /dev/sda,/dev/sda1 /dev/sdb, /dev/sdb1 etc. Is this understanding correct?

In the case of USB attached SCSI devices, would driver create this device file entry? How is it created? Can somebody please tell me how it is being created automatically. In case I attach a fixed SCSI hard disk before boot up(and create device file /dev/sda1), would USB SCSI device driver create device files starting from /dev/sdb, automatically.

General :: Can't Find Boot Device - Error "Unable To Determine Major/minor Number Of Root Device"

I just compiled my first own kernel (I'm using Arch Linux), following the tutorial on the german site. Now I tried to boot it, I ended up failing with this message: Code: Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/sda1 ... Root device '/dev/sda1' doesn't exist, Attempting to create it.

I simply copy&pasted the Arch-entry, i.e. I also had the disk by uuid there.

OpenSUSE Install :: Grub Failure And Now Waiting For Device

Dec 10, 2009

2 weeks ago, my power supply blew, during close-down. My system is a SUSE Linux 10.1 and openSUSE 11.1 dual boot with WInXP (for those family things). After replacing the power supply my system had no root partition, or loader. It said something like "Invalid Partition table". Grub had gone! So following swerdna's "How to Boot into openSUSE" tutorial I used the openSuse 11.1 install CD rescue option to get to the command prompt, su'd, went to grub and followed the stated commands. So far so good.

However the new grub entry openSUSE (Failsafe) has a problem. It starts to boot in the usual way, but I note fatal Module errors in the boot log relating to sata_nv not found, ide_pci_generic not found etc, and Fatal error inserting edd (/lib/modules/2.6.27.39-0.2-default/kernel/driver/firmware/edd.ko): no such device but uses udev as boot source until Waiting for device /dev/disk/by-id/ataST3120827AS-4M60PX7V-part6...... and then it exits to /bin/sh.

My fdisk looks
Dev Boot Start End Blocks Id Syst
/dev/sda1 1 1306 10490413 c w95 fat32
/dev/sda2 1307 2612 10690445 c w95 fat32

Ubuntu :: Failure To Mount Root Device On Startup

Jan 14, 2010

Recently installed some minor software, some games and Ubuntu Tweak, I am not sure if that's what caused this issue or not. I shutdown after the installations, then when I tried to start back up the small, white ubuntu logo appears just like it normally does, then it just goes to a black screen. I turned off the computer and restarted in (Recovery Mode). It goes about its thing then it says it is waiting for root file system, then after about 30 seconds it says "Gave up waiting for Root File System" how to fix this without reinstalling?

Ubuntu :: Updating Server - Gave Up Waiting For Root Device Error

Feb 8, 2011

I have been trying to update my server from 6.06 server to 10.04 server. My attempts have been complicated by versions later than 6.06 not being able to properly read my CD-ROM. I used the 'do-release-upgrade' mechanism to upgrade to from 6.06 to 8.04 and then to 10.04. 8.04 loaded OK, but 10.04 fails to boot with the surprisingly common "Gave up waiting for root device" error. It stops at the built-in shell prompt. If I exit from the shell, it seems to boot up normally.

I have verified that the boot partition is /dev/sda1 and the UUID for the partition is correct. My system is an older IBM eServer xSeries 350 with quad 700MHz XEON processors and a 36GB SCSI drive. This system properly installed from the 6.06 CD and boots under this version without problems. So I have some questions. Only the first one needs an answer.

1. What do I need to do to get my system to boot properly?
2. Why was this software released with this error?
3. Why wasn't the faulty loader pulled from the release until it was fixed?
4. Is it possible to revert to the 6.06 loader, which works fine?
5. Why doesn't the loader attempt to try something else that should work instead of just giving up?

Hardware :: Raid6: Disk Failure On Sdb1, Disabling Device?

Jun 9, 2010

For backup purposes, I built a RAID6 array on USB. When during the night the backup filesystem is being mounted, every so many days, a random disk fails:

Code: sd 9:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE
sd 9:0:0:0: [sdb] Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
sd 9:0:0:0: [sdb] Add. Sense: Invalid field in cdb[code].....

In other words, my RAID set fails every so many mounts, but I know how to fix it.What I want to find out is:

- Why is a random drive failed every now and then?

- How can I prevent that drive from being failed?

BTW: I have a second RAID set that has been functioning for years without error, so the setup I use must be correct. The only difference between both RAID arrays is the different vendor of the disks.

Fedora Installation :: F12 Upgrade - Boot Failure / No Root Device Found

Jun 1, 2010

I'm a long time Linux user. Finally got around to upgrading my Fedora 11 system to Fedora 12 by using the 'preupgrade' tool. The upgrade appeared to go well (downloaded packages, rebooted into installer, etc). However, now that the upgrade is complete, I'm unable to boot my system.

Here's my configuration:
/dev/sda (80Gb)
200Mb /boot partition (ext3)
52Gb / partition (ext4 - managed as logical volume)
2Gb swap partition (managed as logical volume)
20Gb /spare partition (ext3 - managed as logical volume) .....

All worked fine under Fedora 11 for the last few months. Grub now presents me with 'Fedora' and 'Windows XP' boot options. The /boot/grub/menu.lst file is essentially the same as it was for Fedora 11, except for the different kernel versions, etc. The boot sequence shows the Fedora bubble (??) and gets about 80% full when the screen goes black and the message displayed is:

No root device found
Boot has failed, sleeping forever
If I boot Windows, all works fine.

Am able to boot using a SystemRescueCD disk. The disks all look okay and I can mount/modify all partitions, etc. The grub menu.lst file read as follows (sorry, typed in, not copied):
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686.PAE)

General :: Usb/external Drive Problems Redux - Read-only - Does This Suggest Device Failure

May 22, 2010

I initially thought the problem had to do with the Lucid Lynx upgrade, a lot of people have been reporting similar issues with drive mapping and things along those line. My issue is that an external drive, formatted in FAT32 appears to be corrupted, and overtime begins to read or mounts as 'read-only.'

What I've read, and deduced, is that this is ultimately and issue with the drive. I've backed it up, reformatted, and been able to write to the drive successfully, but I've been moving a lot of files (backing up) and the system has been reporting input/output errors in transferring some files (through the GUI).

The only thing I can think of, is that the device itself is corrupted or damaged, and that I need to be thinking of other back-up options for the future. Any suggestions on disk-doctoring? I'm hoping to do a clean-install of the OS once I back up my files manually.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Rebuilding Array (Intel Matrix) - Device Failure And Disconnected One Of The Drives

Jul 3, 2009

I got opensuse 11 running on a dedicated HDD and got another 4 HDDs created as RAID 10 via the Intel Matrix RAID Controller of the ICH10 southbridge. I simulated a device failure and disconnected one of the drives and during POST the controller simply says that I need to rebuilt the array from the OS. So how am I supposed to do that since there were no usable raid utitlities for openSuSe delivered out of the box.

Fedora Hardware :: Full Speed USB MSC Device Detected As Input Device?

Apr 7, 2011

I am working on an embedded system, which is an USB MSC device that supports some vendor specific scsi commands. I am using FC10 laptop as USB host for testing, and it runs some small apps based on sg3. All has been well for ~ a week. The FC10 laptop is able to communicate with the device and retrieve data. Suddenly, starting from today, the laptop is not able to properly detect the device. When plugged-in, the MSC device is detected as input device (I thought). This is observed from "dmesg" output and changes in "/dev/input/".The device under development is running at full speed. When I connect to winXP, no problem. A windows file explorer pops up, showing the content of the drive.Also, the FC10 has no problem with other USB flash drive (high speed).
