luks partition table altered by linux-swap

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

 



Hello,

we have very important server running CentOS 5.3 with incredible
terabytes of valuable data stored in luks partition. Server was just
ok, but one hdd died in RAID-5, so I had to reboot, and didn't mention
this line in fstab:

LABEL=SWAP-sdc1         swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

/dev/sdc1 is our encrypted drive.

after reboot 2gb of swap were added to /dev/sdc1

Sep 25 09:22:54 backup kernel: Adding 2097144k swap on /dev/sdc1.
Priority:-1 extents:1 across:2097144k

After removing swap from this drive I am totally unable to luksOpen
partition, though I know password is 100% correct.

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc1 crypt2
Enter LUKS passphrase:
Enter LUKS passphrase:
Enter LUKS passphrase:
Command failed: No key available with this passphrase.

LUKS header is at the beginning of drive.

cryptsetup isLuks /dev/sdc1 gives no error - so drive is luks
encrypted and recognized as one, but still cannot be opened.

cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sdc1

But i.e parted shows this:

GNU Parted 1.8.1
Using /dev/sdc1
Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.
(parted) print

Model: Unknown (unknown)
Disk /dev/sdc1: 5990GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: loop

Number  Start   End     Size    File system  Flags
 1      0.00kB  5990GB  5990GB  linux-swap


linux-swap as fs and partition table now changed from gpt to loop.
Anyone knows how to fix this and remove this swap partition and fs
from this partition?

Sorry for my clumsy English, hope you got the main idea of the problem.
