Hi everyone, I encounter the following problem with GFS unter RHEL4. Anyone familiar with this one. Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: fatal: assertion "x <= length" failed Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: function = blkalloc_internal Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: file = /usr/src/build/574066-ia64/BUILD/gfs-kernel-2.6.9-35/src/gfs/rgrp.c, line = 1450 Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: time = 1146227066 Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: about to withdraw from the cluster Apr 28 14:24:26 tstserver kernel: GFS: fsid=clmdb1:gfs05_0.1: waiting for outstanding I/O What can I do against it? Anytime the error occurs all I get when I try to access a directory on that volume is an "Input/Output error". The failure occurs regularly and can only be resolved by booting the system. Interestingly the error doesn't apply to all GFS volumes on a server. One volume regularly fails while the other is up and running all the time. There was no difference in setting them up. Anyway the could be observed on different servers. Best regards, Uli -- Echte DSL-Flatrate dauerhaft für 0,- Euro*!
