Removing thin LV results in exception
Last modified: 2014-03-12 09:04:24 EDT
Created attachment 814919 [details] anaconda crash report Description of problem: Attempt to remove LV to be created, results in crash Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-20.25-1 How reproducible: I have seen this second time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. select "LVM thin" profile 2. click link to create default layout on free disks 3. try to remove fedora-root thin LV Actual results: Crash in anaconda Expected results: LV should be removed Additional info: Proposing as Beta Blocker as not meeting following Custom Partitioning requirement: When using the custom partitioning flow, the installer must be able to: - Remove a planned storage volume from the planned layout
Update: Reproducible: 4/4 More accurate steps: 1. Select "I want to review/modify my disk..."\ 2. Change Partition scheme to "LVM Thin Provisioning" 3. Continue 4. In "New Fedora 20 Installation" click "Click here to create them automatically" 5. Select / (fedora-root) and "-" to remove Works fine for /boot (partition) and swap (which is plain (linear) LV)
I am using TC5 (anaconda-20.25.1-1) and have been unable to reproduce the reported failure. Please try with TC5 and see if the problem persists.
Still the same I think - opened BZ 1022366 so abrt catches duplicates.
*** Bug 1022366 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
When I created other mountpoints (thin LV) those could be removed. I removed swap on the VG and then removed root LV just fine. I created LV /home and thin-LV /, attempt to remove / resulted in crash. Seems that happens only when there are other non-thin LVs.
I was able to reproduce it. It happens when you remove the last thin lv from a new/non-existent pool. I'm testing a patch.
My test of the patch was successful. Please try it for yourself to verify: http://dlehman.fedorapeople.org/updates/updates-1021890.0.img Thanks.
Discussed at 2013-10-23 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-10-23/f20-blocker-review.2013-10-23-16.00.log.txt . Accepted as a blocker per Beta criterion "When using the custom partitioning flow, the installer must be able to: ... Remove a planned storage volume from the planned layout" - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Beta_Release_Criteria#Custom_partitioning .
The update works for me. Thanks!
Not reproducible with Fedora-Live-Desktop-x86_64-20-Beta-TC6.iso.
I put the wrong bug in the commit message for this one. It should be fixed in python-blivet-0.23.2-1.
Confirming squashed status, does not occur with beta TC6: python-blivet-0.23.2-1, anaconda-20.25.4-1.
python-blivet-0.23.2-1.fc20 went stable as part of FEDORA-2013-20033 and the fix was verified, so this can be closed.
