Anyway, joepie91: When Ubuntu Server automounts a drive it mounts it read-only. If you umount it you can then mount -o defaults and it should be read-write. |
|
14:37
🔗
|
DoubleJ |
(Well, USB drive that is. For internals I think they default to rw) |
|
14:38

joepie91 |
I'm refering to servers |

joepie91 |
that remounted the filesystem of the VPSes as readonly |
|
14:39
🔗
|
DoubleJ |
Oh. no friggin' idea then. Given that it's Linux it's probably doing something stupid like misdetecting them, and thinking they're externals, but the actual problem/solution are beyond me. |
|
18:45
🔗
|
ersi |
DoubleJ: No, you're probably way of there. |
|
18:45
🔗
|
ersi |
A filesystem re-mounted as read-only is usually not a good indicator, I'd check `dmesg` to see if there's any I/O Errors or such |

|
SmileyG |
I've had hdds fail from pretty much every manufacturer. |

SmileyG |
I also know why to not run raid6 on more than 3-4 drives. |

18:49

ersi |
It read like you said "I hate dell, they make shitty perc cards because my two out of the bazillions made died". but maybe I read too much into your lines :P |

|
SmileyG |
ersi: haha nah. |
|
18:50

|
SmileyG |
I'm actually quite supportive of dell, concidering some of the stories i've heard |
|
18:50
🔗
|
SmileyG |
As a end user, my dell laptop when i got it all those years ago was well built, powerful and reasonably priced. |
|
18:50
🔗
|
SmileyG |
The support at work has been generally very good. |
|
18:51
🔗
|
SmileyG |
The issue of getting one of the perc cards replaced was annoying and drawn out, simply because we couldn't replicate the error, but other than that they've been very good. |
|
18:51
🔗
|
ersi |
Yeah, that can always be frustrating |
|
18:51
🔗
|
SmileyG |
How do you prove its not going to fail? ;~) |
|
18:51

|
ersi |
I know, I'm a sw tester xD |

ersi |
Everything fails, sooner or later |
|
18:52
🔗
|
SmileyG |
That was my problem..... it would fail to write for hours (infact it managed a week) from running on teh cache. |
|
18:52
🔗
|
ersi |
Question is how often :) |
|
18:52
🔗
|
SmileyG |
Yup, our server stayed up a week without writing to the hdd ¬_¬ |
|
18:53
🔗
|
SmileyG |
How do you write a test that proves you've written to the hdd, when you can't use write-through mode? |
|
18:53
🔗
|
SmileyG |
sync every 10 min "just in case" ? |

Uh, no - that seems very silly |
|
18:57
🔗
|
ersi |
Also, don't you have redundancy? ;o or was it two perc cards, one in each host? |
|
18:59
🔗
|
ersi |
but I don't know your case/scenario. It does seem you're talking about testing it in operation though, more like a sysadmin ^ :) |
