Jan Vcelak 2012-10-01 09:14:20 UTC Doc Text Cause:
ELEVATOR_TUNE_DEVS in /etc/sysconfig/ktune set to a disk device (from /dev) instead of providing a disk scheduler control file (from /sys).

Consequence:
Scheduler setting is not written to a disk scheduler control file but directly into to disk device file. This will break the content on the disk.

Fix:
Patch applied to check the value of ELEVATOR_TUNE_DEVS and allow only writing into a disk scheduler control file.

Result:
ktune will inform that the value of ELEVATOR_TUNE_DEVS is invalid under a given circumstances and will not damage the disk content.
