Hi!

Thanks for this quick response.

I also see the problem in the kernel, but the system worked for about 2 months with nearly the same configuration (only some python-packages were added). All I did was changing the partitions of one of the storages ...

Otavio: Maybe you could put this in the documentation?

man partprobe?

What's your suggestion about it?

I was thinking abut something like a

---[ troubleshooting.txt ]------------------------------------------------
If /proc/partitions does not know about your partitions but parted does so, you should try running partprobe.

Hint: If you miss your partitions after a reboot, it could be necessary to run partprobe at every reboot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I understood the man-page of partprobe like it is a tool to force the system re-reading the partitions without a reboot after making changes. But at the moment at least I have to use the tool to make the partitions visible for Linux every time I reboot - this is not "inform the OS of partition table changes", it is something like "inform the OS of the partition table" ;-)

But you're right: it also may be the fault of the SCSI-host-driver - something like a timeout. I will inform these guys tomorrow.




Greetings from Germany,


Andreas
