mdadm fails to start raid in pv fc16 DomU on old host

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

 



I'm having a problem with mdraid running in a DomU. The issue is that mdraid 
declares one leg of the raid to have failed (when there's actually nothing 
wrong).

DomU is fc16 - 3.2.2-1.fc16.x86_64
Dom0 is fc14 - 2.6.32.26-174.2.xendom0.fc12.x86_64

The same DomU running on Dom0 fc16 - 3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64 runs perfectly.

This appears to be a known issue, however the resolution (which seems to be to 
disable barriers on the fly) doesn't seem to work in this case.

My question is: Is it possible to pass a parameter to the blkfront driver to 
ask it not to enable barrier during initialization? or is there another work 
around?
