It seems to be an issue in the storage configuration library. Reassigning to blivet. Further research indicated this issue may be due to an old RAID set. Two of the disks were once a shadowed pair, but have not been used as such for more than a year since the system was upgraded from Fedora-14 to CentOS 7 with no issues. Only one of the mirrored disks were used. The other was left unmounted. To test if the split RAID set was causing the installation problem, unplugged one of the disks. Installation then proceeded with no more issues. After completing the installation, plugged the disk back in then rebooted and everything works as expected. The second disk of the old RAID set is not used and is still not mounted. Will reformat it at some point to make sure no further problems arise. From the submitters viewpoint this issue can be considered resolved. Hi Randy, this exception usually happens when blivet encounters duplicate UUID. Blivet uses UUID for device identification and gets confused when the same value is encountered twice. In your case it seems that sdc and sdd were the culprits. The most common cause of duplicate UUID is cloning disks (e.g. for RAID). That would explain why temporary disconnection of the disk helped. I am afraid that we cannot do much in this case. In newer versions of blivet this issue at least gets a better description, though. I am closing the bug but feel free to reopen it if you have any questions. Have a nice day, Jan |
