[Kernel-packages] [Bug 607560] Re: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise

This bug maybe fixed, but it is already happening in various Linux distros, not just Ubuntu.

The noise from the HDD annoys the user and therefore can negatively affect the performance of their work, so this is a very important bug that must be fixed, once and for all.

This bug is still NOT FIXED. (Maybe once it was fixed, but now it is there again, so this is not related to old kernels, newer kernels suffer from this again. I think this thread must not be "invalid".) I'm using Ubuntu MATE 17.04 64-bit,the kernel is 4.10.0-38-generic.

Thinked some more. Journalling is just redirect of other apps, right? So I tried to disable journalling at all. And what do you think? Suddenly, another app was taking all I/O. It's "python onedrive-d start", glitchy sync app that I have been installed recently. Now my plot is: 1. Configure onedrive-d so it be not so intensive; 2. Re-enable journalling.

Wrong again, got exactly the bad behaviour on Ubuntu 13.10. It's perhaps not related to the issue that started this thread, but since I posted here I thought I might as well inform anyone visiting this that my solution didn't work. My current thinking is that if you have an NFS4 server with clients attached, and you reboot the server without detaching the clients, you get the bad behaviour. If you umount the clients first, then reboot the server, then mount the clients, the problem doesn't occur. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607560 Title: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: jbd2 writes blocks to the hard disk every 5 seconds.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 607560] Re: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise
I'm having a similar issue in Zentyal, which runs on top of Ubuntu 12.04. Details: http://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,17925.0.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607560 Title: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: jbd2 writes blocks to the hard disk every 5 seconds. This makes an annoying click/tick noise and prevents the disk from spinning down to conserve power. jbd2 appears in logs as several entries like... Jul 19 21:35:45 edge kernel: [ 3312.913759] jbd2/sda5-8(350): WRITE block 42280704 on sda5 ... and can be observed using iotop. Since the noise only occurs in Ubuntu and not in Windows 7 it is probably a software problem. The excessive writes may reduce the disk's lifespan. WORKAROUND: Adding commit=60 to the partition's entry in fstab increases the interval to 30-45 seconds.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 607560] Re: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise
rCX, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: needs-full-computer-model needs-upstream-testing ** Description changed: jbd2 writes blocks to the hard disk every 5 seconds. This makes an annoying click/tick noise and prevents the disk from spinning down to conserve power. jbd2 appears in logs as several entries like...
