mdadm create problem with existing bitmap file

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

 



Hello,

I am using mdadm 2.6.3 on Ubuntu 8.04.3 32 bits. Sometimes I hit this error when I try to create a RAID1:

mdadm --create --force --assume-clean /dev/md73 --level=1 --bitmap=/root/bitmaps/md73bm.tmp --raid-devices=2 /dev/vg1/vol1 --write-mostly /dev/sdj

Continue creating array? mdadm: failed to open bitmap file /root/bitmaps/md73bm.tmp: Text file busy

The bitmap file exists, but lsof doesn't show that it is in use by any other process.

If I copy the bitmap file and try the create again everything works fine.

Any idea what might be happening here?


Thanks,


Juan Aristizabal
