This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. Is this an issue that was introduced in recent versions of RHEL4?. If so, what
version of parted worked? What I want to address in this question is the time
in which the bug was introduced. Going from 3 to 4 doesn't give me a lot of
information on where the bug might be as a *lot* of changes happened from one
release to another. Did you see it in RHEL4.{1,2,3,4,5,6,7}
Is it possible for you to attach the first 1024 bytes of the image. this might
be useful in debugging the situation.
Hi Joel, This issue was not introduced in recent versions of RHEL4. As you can see the bug was filed in March 2006 against parted 1.6.19-1.EL. I don't know exactly which RHEL release that is but I suspect RHEL4 <= 4.2. Unfortunately the affected configuration is not available anymore for me to test with, so I cannot send you the first 1k of the image. very similar issue in 52 250717 I can't reproduce this bug. Can you post consistent steps to reproduce? What's on the disk, what's the disk layout (LVM, partitions, etc.) ? We need more information in order to address this issue. Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days |

The list contains a column 'Filesystem' that shows which filesystem is installed on the partition. However for some disks parted fails to show that a partition contains an (ext3) filesystem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.6.19-1.EL How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. parted /dev/sdah print 2. 3.

Parted does show the filesystem information for a SAN snapshot of another volume used by the same system.
