storage.log
Proposed as a Blocker for 32-beta by Fedora user lnie using the blocker tracking app because: This affects: The installer must be able to: Correctly interpret...any disk with a valid ms-dos or gpt disk label and partition table containing...software RAID arrays at RAID levels 0, 1 and 5 containing ext4 partitions *** Bug 1804066 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** It seems to be an issue in the storage configuration library. Reassigning to blivet. Now that other bugs are fixed, I can see openQA is running into this too. Is this the same as BZ 1798792, which is already accepted as an F32 Beta blocker? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1798792 No. That bug is about the installer handling a *pre-existing* software RAID array. This is about creating a *new* one. Different issues. We create the md array such that mdadm should auto-activate it after creation. Something a little weird happens with that, then blivet thinks the array is inactive right afterward, so it tries to activate it and mdadm complains that the devices are busy.

Seems plausible to me, but I'm only a casual observer in this case.

I'm quite sure this bug is caused by the mdadm udev rules misplacement. I didn't close this as duplicate of 1809117 only because this one is accepted as a blocker. Confirmed that this is fixed in today's compose, with the udev rule placement fixed - openQA software RAID install tests all passed. *** Bug 1812513 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
