Hello listers,
 
Last weekend we moved an SLES9 machine to our backup VM. After reboot of
the guest the guest failed the filesystemcheck. After some research we
found that the required entries in de /dev directories were missing.
 
/home and /usr have been moved to a different dasd quite some time ago.
/home is located on /dev/dasde1 and /usr is placed on /dev/dasdkk1. Now,
after the reboot, /dev contained /dev/dasde, /dev/dasde2, /dev/dasde3
and /dev/dasdkk. Note that both dasde1 and dasdkk1 are missing. When the
fsck tries to check /dev/dasde1 and /dev/dasdkk1, as stated in the
/etc/fstab, it fails because the devices are not in the /dev directory.
 
In the end we have formatted and recreated the disks so we were able to
repair this. But it does leave us with a bad feeling as to what and/or
why this had happend.
 
Why could these entries have been removed from the /dev directory? They
were present before shutdown, or at least I guess they were because
obviously the guest did have /home and /usr available before.
 
I found a message that stated that udev should create the devices but
would that also be the case here? And if so, why didn't it?
 
Met vriendelijke groet/With kind regards,
