/proc/scsi/scsi from kernel-2.6.32-128.el6.x86_64
So far I've only seen this on Dell PowerEdge 2850's and nowhere else. I was able to reproduce it on veritas3.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com, veritas2.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com, and dell-pe2850-01.rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com. Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. SCSI device ordering is not guaranteed |
Created attachment 490370 [details] dmesg boot log Description of problem: I'm seeing sda become sdb when I move from kernel-2.6.32-125.el6.x86_6 to kernel-2.6.32-128.el6.x86_64 on veritas[2,3].rhts.eng.bos.redhat.com. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.32-128.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install snapshot-1 2. Boot the system and look at /proc/partitions 3. Install kernel-2.6.32-128.el6.x86_64 and reboot 4. Check /proc/partitions again. Or 1. Install snapshot-2 directly and check /proc/partitions. Actual results: With kernel-2.6.32-128.el6.x86_64 the megaraid boot device ends up being labeled sdb. On all previous kernels I've tested it is sda. Expected results: Additional info:
