---------------------
# parted /dev/mapper/oracle
GNU Parted 1.7.0
Using /dev/mapper/oracle

Error: The backup GPT table is not at the end of the disk, as it should
be. This might mean that another operating system believes the disk is
smaller. Fix, by moving the backup to the end (and removing the old
backup)?
Fix/Cancel? Fix
You found a bug in GNU Parted! Here's what you have to do:
[...]
Assertion (n > 0) at exception.c:112 in function ped_log2() failed.
---------------------
I get the same message when I try to run the debugging commands suggested
by the message and the web pages respectively:
parted /dev/mapper/oracle unit co print unit s print
parted /dev/mapper/oracle print unit s print unit chs print
...so I am unable to supply their output.
