Description luke.varnadore 2012-05-02 20:31:02 UTC
Description of problem:
stale hardware clock causes systemd to fsck the read only filesystem in the installer environment

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.3.0 fc16

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set hardware clock outside the fsck window
2.Boot ovirt-node-iso
3.Watch in horror as it tries to fsck a read only filesystem and then dies
  
Actual results:
Dead installer

Expected results:
Installer succeeds 

Additional info:
I used hwclock to correct the date and it installs fine.

Mike,

should we take care of this situation? The only Node specific bit I see with this problem is that fsck fails because we've got a ro rootfs.

Do you have a proposed solution?  Do we even know if this is still an issue?

I believe this issue is a generic issue related to fsck - and not to Node.
What I could think of is that fsck / systemd should take care of such a situation.

I've created an upstream bug 947533 to see what they say.

Luke,

can you still reproduce this with 2.6.0?
I couldn't on a first try.

Comment 5 Fabian Deutsch 2013-04-09 11:01:21 UTC
No response from the reporter and I'm also not able to reproduce it therefor closig this.
