Description of problem: The fix for bug 511271 deleted the lines in the iscsi init script that disabled network shutdown: > This is the diff of two versions of /etc/init.d/iscsid: > $ diff iscsid.iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.871-0.14.el5.i386.rpm \ > iscsid.6.2.0.871-0.10.el5 > > 18a19,26 > > echo -n $"Turning off network shutdown. " > > # we do not want iscsi or network to run during system shutdown > > # incase there are RAID or multipath devices using > > # iscsi disks > > chkconfig --level 06 network off > > rm /etc/rc0.d/*network > > rm /etc/rc6.d/*network > > This was done to avoid a conflict with readonly root environments but causes a regression of bug 209523, (I/O errors and hangs when shutting down a system using iSCSI). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.871-0.16.el5 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a system to use iscsi-initiator-utils to access storage 2. Shutdown the host while the iscsi storage is in use Actual results: Network shutdown scripts shut down the iSCSI interfaces before file systems are unmounted and the iSCSI service itself is shut down, leading to I/O errors. Expected results: System should not hang or produce I/O errors on shutdown. Additional info:
Fix component.
This is a s dup of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=583218 Which bz do you want to use? The other one is not setup for z stream yet. The fix is not easy when also supporting boot and existing solutions and the chkconfig read-only issue.
One question. Should I be able to just run "chkconfig --level 06 network off" in the rpm install section? Then on later boots the network shutdown should be off or is there something that resets that on each boot?
