Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.45.1-1
Severity: normal
I just got this mail from cron:
So sorry, the automatic e2scrub of /db on host failed.
May 19 03:10:39 host systemd[1]: Starting Online ext4 Metadata Check for
/db...
May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: /db: Not connnected to a LVM logical

May 19 03:10:41 host systemd[1]: e2scrub@-db.service: Triggering OnFailure=
dependencies.
Indeed, running e2scrub on /db manually gives the above output, which is
actually correct, as /db is on a dmcrypt device which in turn is on an
lvm device.
I think either the cron job should not run automatically, or this type of
error should be silently ignored.
Also, the documentation for the failing e2scrub@.service unit only refers
"man:e2scrub(8)" which says nothing about the service (or how to disable
it), as far as I can see.
(And, a very minor typo, it should be "an LVM", not "a LVM")
