Read Only File System

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




We have a file system mounted to /home2 to which we do backups.

It has been writable for quite some time (to root at least).  However, now, trying

to do anything requiring writing gives an error which sometimes says "read only

file system".

 

I heard sometimes if linux encounters errors in a disk it will remount it as read only.

A mount -l however shows it as

/dev/sdb1 on /home2 type ext3 (rw) []

and ls -ls on it:  4 drwxrwxr-x  9 root cusload 4096 Oct  3 10:19 /home2
So it appears to be writable.

 

Doing antyhing like > /home2/test or vi /home2/test (or any subdirectory)

gives errors though about not being able to write (or read only file system).

 

Any idea what is going on?
