Description of problem: Trying to run hts-5.2-20.el5 in a Lenovo ThinkStation D10 with two 160GB HDs. /dev/sda runs fine but /dev/sdb fails because the entire volume is detaulted to LVM. Tried to reinstall with /boot, /home and two 2GB swap volumes on sda and / on sdb. Fails on sdb again. Added a 2GB swap volume on sdb with fdisk but still fails because / is on sdb. Had to reinstall with nothing on sdb before I could get a successful storage test run. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Take defaults on install of system with two serial HDs. hts will fail if there is anything on sdb. Actual results: /dev/sdb fails certification test due to default LVM volume consuming all of sdb. Expected results: Successful test.
If there's an active swap partition on sdb, then there's no reason that the STORAGE test will fail on sdb regardless whether the "/" is on sdb or not. could you please attach the result rpm file for invetigation ? Thanks -YK
Larry, I could not re-produce this issue. Could you please give me some update ? Or could we close this bug now ? Thanks -YK
I'm going to close this one as not enough info, there's also some changes coming in storage via bug #437866 which may mitigate this issue, but because we haven't been able to reproduce it.
