the solution in the previous comment does not work for me... we are using ubuntu12.04 as xen dom0, and lvm as xen storage. when shutting down a domU we got these error in the syslog。and I found udev using the lvm LV device and prevent me from removing it some seconds afterward --------------- /var/log/syslog ---------- Nov 15 21:34:09 e6 logger: /etc/xen/scripts/xen-hotplug-cleanup: XENBUS_PATH=backend/vif/4/0 Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4964]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-3, 10) failed: No such file or directory Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4964]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-3, 10) failed: No such file or directory Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4972]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-4, 10) failed: No such file or directory Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4972]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-4, 10) failed: No such file or directory Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4972]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-2, 10) failed: No such file or directory Nov 15 21:34:12 e6 udevd[4972]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-2, 10) failed: No such file or directory --------------------------- I don't know why udev is atempting to watch the dm (LV) device.
I found in /lib/udev/rules.d/60-persistent-storage-dm.rules and edit out or comment the line : ------------- OPTIONS+="watch" ------------- it seemed the problem is gone, and I found no side-effect at the present -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/581566 Title: udevd inotify_add_watch no such directory error for physical volumes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dmraid/+bug/581566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
