From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Description of problem: The HP rx2600/rx5670 panics when doing continuous IO on the ATAboy2s. I have a panic screen-dump and an attempt at running ksymoops on it. The simplest way to provoke the panic, is simply to try creating a 800GB partition using the GNU parted partition program (as is recommended on ia64). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): linux-2.4.18-e.12smp -> linux-2.4.18-e.37smp How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: scenario 1: 1.parted /dev/sdb 2.mklabel gpt 3.mkpartfs primary ext2 282101 1132100 scenario 2: 1. iozone -r 64 -s 10g Actual Results: scenario 1: The machine panics after appr. 5 minutes. scenario 2: The machine hangs after appr. 10 minutes. Expected Results: scenario 1: The partition should have been created. scenario 2: iozone should have printed the rest of the performance results and exited normaly Additional info: I get the following messages when creating partitions in a GPT partition table: Alternate GPT is invalid, using primary GPT. Error: Invalid argument during read on /dev/sdb These messages does not appear if I use a different label type (f.i: "bsd","loop", "mac", "msdos", "pc98" or "sun")
I dont think we have the hardware to test this. I'm closing this bug just because its so old, please reopen it if its still a problem. Larry Woodman
