Hi all, I'm running about 8 VEs on an ubuntu 8.04 server host. Example is a debian etch VE (kiev) . This has been running quite well, but suddenly we noticed this issue (30G file system and 1.3G used but we're not able to write to the file system as non-root). Very bad
kiev:/# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on simfs 30G 1.3G 0G 100% / tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /lib/init/rw tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /dev/shm kiev:/# On further investigation, all of the VEs on the host were displaying this behaviour. i.e. no non-root writes even though there was plenty of room in the / partition. We restarted the VEs independently, tried restoring them from backup, nothing helped. We even did /etc/init.d/vz restart on the host ... but things came up in the same weird state. As a last resort I rebooted the physical host. and hey presto all the VEs were fixed. very weird (and a little scary) Sorry, don't ask me to perform diagnostics on the "broken" VEs as I don't have them any more, I rebooted the hardware. I know this is bad for troubleshooting (but having no dev environment was bad as well) anyone seen this before??? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
