1) I don't see how this is a regression. I have removed the spurious keyword. 2) Why zstream? The changes related to this bug have been discussed for zstream before and found too intrusive. Please reconsider. Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request. (In reply to comment #4) > 1) I don't see how this is a regression. I have removed the spurious keyword. See bug 568138 comment #16 --- In 5.4, transient/medium errors aren't recovered, but systems can keep running with a device marked failed if there is still valid mirror legs. It is an expected behavior for mirroring. On the other hand, in 5.5 beta1, application which issued I/Os is stuck and system can't keep running. This happens because dm-raid1 was updated so that I/Os are blocked until a failure is recovered. --- If dmeventd can't handle this kind of error, application will hangup forever. That's the reason why I think it is regression from RHEL5.4. > 2) Why zstream? The changes related to this bug have been discussed for zstream > before and found too intrusive. Please reconsider. Then, please consider to fix this in RHEL5.6. |
