I already mount with the netdev option. The network service is started before postgresql but not lvm for. I tried to start lvm service as dependency but no changes. ----- Mail d'origine ----- De: Jeroen van Iddekinge <iddekingej@xxxxxxxxx> À: proj@xxxxxxx, pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Envoyé: Wed, 17 Feb 2016 18:51:42 +0100 (CET) Objet: Re: Pgsql troubleshooting & Iscsi On 02/17/2016 06:07 PM, proj@xxxxxxx wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I installed a postgresql database on Redhat 7.1 and I decided to move the database on an ISCSI device (LUN) inside a logical volume, mounted at starting of the machine (xfs formatted).

So I tried to force dependencies on the /usr/lib/systemd/system/postgresql.service adding "After=lvm-pgscan.service iscsi.service" etc... but the result is the same : failure in starting postgresql > > > > systemd: Starting Remote File Systems (Pre) > systemd: Reached Remote File Systems (Pre) > systemd: mounting /var/lib/pgsql > systemd: starting PostgreSQL database server > kernel sdb: unknown partition table > postgresql-check-db-dir: "/var/lib/pgsql/data" is missing or empty > kernel: xfs (dm-4): Mounting V4 Filesystem > postgresql.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1 > Failed to start PostgreSQL database server. > Unit postgresql.service entered failed state > sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] attached SCSI disk > starting LVM2 PV scan on device 8:16 > kernel: xfs (dm-3): Ending clean mount > systemd: Mounted /var/lib/pgsql > Starting Remote File Systems > Reached target Remote File Systems > > Any ideas ? > > regards, > Magique > > Put _netdev in the option field in fstab. This indicates that the device must be mounted after network is available. I have for example : /dev/disk/by-path/ip-10.48.4.1:3260-iscsi-iqn.2004-04.com.qnap:ts-851:iscsi.lun0.e6ae62-lun-0-part1 /data3 btrfs _netdev 0 0 Regards Jeroen -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
