Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 135730
init.d/lock_gulmd should not stop if GFS is mounted
Last modified: 2010-01-11 21:59:49 EST
Description of problem: The init.d init script should probably not stop if there are resources running that require it (i.e. GFS and/or GNBD). Stopping lock_gulmd on a client mounting GFS can cause orphaned locks to appear in the lock server (see bug# 129193). Additional logic that checked to see if the resource was in use would help prevent the occurance of this bug. I would like to make the stop operation fail in the event that GFS is currently mounted on the system. Operaters running this script manually will then be informed that the lock_gulmd service is unable to stop because it is already in use. The current stop operation will become a "forcestop" operation so that this functionality is not lost. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): GFS-6.0.0-15 and earlier
The cleanest way that I can think to do this requires accessing the Gulm_Service information of the local lock_gulmd core on the node calling init.d/lock_gulmd stop. This information is currently only available via the SIGUSR1 debugging dumps. A cleaner resource requesting method has been requested (bug #136220).
this has been resolved in version 1.1.2.3 of gulm/init.d/lock_gulmd
