1.18. Troubleshooting
This section provides solution to common problems users experience during online storage reconfiguration.
- Logical unit removal status is not reflected on the host.
- When a logical unit is deleted on a configured filer, the change is not reflected on the host. In such cases,
lvm
commands will hang indefinitely whendm-multipath
is used, as the logical unit has now become stale.To work around this, perform the following procedure:Procedure 1.8. Working Around Stale Logical Units
- Determine which
mpath
link entries in/etc/lvm/cache/.cache
are specific to the stale logical unit. To do this, run the following command:ls -l /dev/mpath | grep stale-logical-unit
- For example, if
stale-logical-unit
is 3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00, the following results may appear:lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 2 10:33 /3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 -> ../dm-4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 2 10:33 /3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1 -> ../dm-5
This means that 3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 is mapped to twompath
links:dm-4
anddm-5
. - Next, open
/etc/lvm/cache/.cache
. Delete all lines containingstale-logical-unit
and thempath
links thatstale-logical-unit
maps to.Using the same example in the previous step, the lines you need to delete are:/dev/dm-4 /dev/dm-5 /dev/mapper/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 /dev/mapper/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1 /dev/mpath/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 /dev/mpath/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1
