Last modified: 2015-01-04 17:12:55 EST
Description of problem: kernel 2.6.9 fails to load a hardware RAID 5 device attached using a qla2200 hba. 2.6.8 loads it properly. 2.6.8 is not using udev. I added the device files from /dev/ for sda sda1 into /etc/udev/devices as noted in the documentation Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable) 2.6.9-1.667 2.6.9-1.678_FC3 both dont work 2.6.8-1.521 does work How reproducible: This happens every time I boot Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load 2.6.9 any version 2. duing boot watch the system 3. sytem goes into panic Actual results: The hba loads with out finding sda or sda1 Expected results: Hba loads finding sda sda1 Additional info: Have log files of both 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 files with comments which I need to upload
Created attachment 107180 [details] Dmesg /var/log/messages /proc/scsi/device_info lsmod comments in /etc/udev/devices are the following sda sda1
which version of udev? Did you try to run mkinitrd after you updated udev?
I did run mkinitrd after making the entrys. the version od udev is udev-039-10.FC3.2 Also in the 2.6.8 kernel sda sda1 loads before udev. In the 2.6.9 kernels sda sda1 never load
do you have a scsi_hostadapter in your /etc/modprobe.conf?? s.th. like this: alias scsi_hostadapter_0 qla2200
okok, read the attachement... reassigning to kernel, as this appears more like a driver problem..
like this "alias scsi_hostadapter qla2200" yes if you look add the log file lsmod does show it loaded and if you look in the log at /proc/scsi/qla2xxx/0 you see the hba and the raid device hanging off the hba. If you look at the device_info file in the log.txt file you will see the dgc raid device identified
