Public bug reported: Debian Bug has been fixed
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806273 Requesting for update to be applied and be available for Trusty and Xenial. os-prober makes partitions read only whilst it scans them, this can cause corruption and loss of service in some uses cases. For example Ceph OSD's are taken offline if journal write happens as same time as os-probe. A Ceph cluster under heavy load will experience large numbers of crashing OSD's if update-grub is run. There are also reports of LVM volumes and KVM guests becoming corrupted ** Affects: os-prober (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: upgrade-software-version -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643614 Title: use grub-mount as the sole source of partition probes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/os-prober/+bug/1643614/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
