Hi everyone,
What is best practice for doing this?
If I reboot in single user mode, will my lvm volumes (ie, /var) be
available for fsck'ing, or do I have to mount them first?
The current problem started after a different problem required me to do
a hard reset on the server - had to do with a mounted QNAP device being
unavailable when I initiated a reboot, and everything just hung.
Ever since I did this hard reset, the server hangs at unmounting /var.
I've let it sit there for at least an hour, and it never goes past that.
Then after I hard reset it, it fsck's /var partition again, maybe fixes
minor problems very quickly, and everything works fine until I have to
reboot or shutdown again.
This became a major problem this weekend when we had one extended power
outage (about 8 hours) yesterday evening, then another one (about 4
hours) this morning right after I got everything back up and running
from last nights outage.
Anyway, I need to do this this weened if at all possible, so...
Anyone have any pointers to detailed docs and or willing to hold my hand
through this a little?
Thanks,
Charles
