Comment 1 Lukas Ruzicka 2018-04-04 10:23:58 UTC
I have a similar misbehaviour. I would like to complete the test case provided at fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Grover/Draft/testcase_stratis:  
I cannot create a stratis pool, although I have two unused disks with no filesystems on it. 

lsblk:
----------------------------------------------------------
sda               8:0    0 111.8G  0 disk 
├─sda1            8:1    0   200M  0 part /boot/efi
├─sda2            8:2    0     1G  0 part /boot
└─sda3            8:3    0 110.6G  0 part

  └─fedora-home 253:2    0  53.7G  0 lvm  /home
sdb               8:16   0 232.9G  0 disk 
sdc               8:32   0 298.1G  0 disk 
----------------------------------------------------------

sudo stratis pool create test1 /dev/sdb >
----------------------------------------------------------
Execution failed: 1: Device /dev/sdb appears to belong to another application
----------------------------------------------------------

Of course, I cannot proceed with the testing.

journactl -b | grep stratis does not show anything relevant.

Comment 3 mulhern 2018-04-04 19:15:42 UTC
Thanks for the reports!

There are two obvious things we can do:

1. Avoid having an empty string as an explanation of execution failure. We are working on that: https://github.com/stratis-storage/stratis-cli/issues/83.

2. Explain better why stratis thinks the device belongs to another application and can't be touched. How stratis decided device ownership, especially ownership by others, is currently in flux, but we can make sure that when that settles, the explanation of other ownership is better elaborated.

Comment 4 mulhern 2018-04-06 13:30:15 UTC
Improve error messages regarding failures in auto-generated methods that depend on dbus-python as well: https://github.com/stratis-storage/dbus-python-client-gen/issues/12.

Comment 5 Paul K 2018-04-28 18:47:58 UTC
On Fedora 28 Beta, Stratisd v0.5.1, I tried the same and received a similar but equally unhelpful message:

[root@fed28 ~]# stratis pool create mypool /dev/sdb 
Execution failed: 4: entity not found

Is this in the same category or is a new bug warranted?

Comment 6 mulhern 2018-04-30 12:45:19 UTC
Thanks! This error reporting problem is a bit deeper, because it requires work on stratisd, the daemon. It has a GitHub issue: https://github.com/stratis-storage/stratisd/issues/766.(In reply to Paul K from comment #5)
