Since I run a ext4 FS with quota on my Redhat 5.4 , I often get these
kind of messages on the console:
Message from syslogd@ at Thu Sep 17 15:40:11 2009 ...
gizeh kernel: mpage_da_map_blocks block allocation failed for inode
3412191 at logical offset 0 with max blocks 1 with error -122
Message from syslogd@ at Thu Sep 17 15:40:11 2009 ...
gizeh kernel: This should not happen.!! Data will be lost
my system is runing on:
$ uname -a
Linux gizeh.int-evry.fr 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:51:48 EDT
2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ rpm -q quota
quota-3.16-7
I upgraded redhat quota package from recompile fedora10 sources because
of this changelog:
* Thu Oct 30 2008 Ondrej Vasik <ovasik@xxxxxxxxxx <mailto:ovasik@xxxxxxxxxx>> 1:3.16-6
- fix implementation of ext4 support
I have a discussion with redhat on this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=522615
the reponse is to move back to ext3 until redhat support quota for ext4 .
my probleme is that I have lot of users and filesystems in this
situation now, and I wonder I couldn't expect a workaround ?
is this issue know in recent kernel, will I really lose data ?
any advice greatly appreciated .
regards
