Growfs: cannot get partition size, Inappropriate ioctl for device
Hi ,
I am trying to increase the filesystem. I did first
#metattach d37 1G
d37: Soft Partition has been grown
and then
# growfs -M <mount point> d37
devinfo: /dev/md/dsk/d38: Inappropriate ioctl for device
growfs: cannot get partition size
What is the problem, can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
looking at the response you got an error message for d38, either your have increased the size of the wrong metadevice or you may have forgotten to increase the size of the opposing sub mirror plex, if d37 and d38 form a mirror, you need to post a metastat and a df -k, to allow us to see what your config is.

Growfs: cannot get partition size
Hi,
I am running Sunos v5.9 and am trying to extend a soft partition from 30gb to 44gb. The slice of disk it is on does not appear to be mirrored and is labelled d2. I ran metattach d2 10g and this completed ok but when I ran the growfs, I got the above error. I have read countless reports of having to use the raw device name and I am doing so, but to no avail. I am running:-
growfs -M /u04 /dev/md/dsk/d2 and get:-
devinfo: /dev/md/dsk/d2: Inappropriate ioctl for device
growfs: cannot get partition size
Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong please?
regards
Carl

Inappropriate ioctl for device
Hello,
I have some zones set up in solaris 10. When i try to scp a file to any of the zones, i get the following error:
"shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
1. /export/home is mounted using lofs in to the zone from the parent.
2. This does not happen when i scp something to the parent
3. This does not happen on an account which is local to the zone, whose default shell is bash
3. This does not happen on an NIS account whose default shell is ksh
4. This does happen on all NIS accounts who have a default shell of bash, even if there is nothing in their home directory (ie, no .bashrc).
5. There is no mention of tty in /etc/profile or /etc/.login
6. I have tried changing the default TERM to vt100 from xterm, it still happens
7. The error does not present itself upon a normal ssh login
8. the error [n]does[n] show up when i do something like `ssh myzone "id"` from another box or zone.
If i don't mount /export/home from the parent in to the zone, i do not get this error. There must be some problem with how i set this up maybe? Here's the zonecfg info:
zonepath: /export/zones/vwsuserz
autoboot: true

I've been googling for a long time and no one seems to have found a resolution. Does anyone have insight in to this problem?

We used to try and have our main /export/home directory 701 permissions, but we received this error. Permissions 755 make the problem go away. Not the best answer, but for the users we have on our systems, it is not a big deal. -

How do I solve this?Hello,
Problem is indeed because of upstart/init incompatibility. Here is the working way:
1) Proceed with the installation as usual until root.sh invocation.
2) Before root.sh edit $GRID_HOME/crs/install/s_crsconfig_lib.pm, go to line 1173 (you should find a code like: if ($srv eq "ohasd") { # Start OHASD).
3) Insert a following snippet before starting OHASD part (line 1173)
my $UPSTART_OHASD_SERVICE = "oracle-ohasd";
my $INITCTL = "/sbin/initctl";
($status, @output) = system_cmd_capture ("$INITCTL start $UPSTART_OHASD_SERVICE");
if (0 != $status)
error ("Failed to start $UPSTART_OHASD_SERVICE, error: $!");
return $FAILED;
4) Create a file /etc/init/oracle-ohasd.conf with the following content inside
# Oracle OHASD startup
start on runlevel [35]
stop on runlevel [!35]
respawn
exec /etc/init.d/init.ohasd run >/dev/null 2>&1 </dev/null
5) Invoke root.sh
6) Finish the installation.
If you previously ran root.sh (not successfully), simply roll it back:
$GRID_HOME/crs/install/roothas.pl -deconfig -force -verbose
Make changes above and continue.
good luck

and restartedHi,
Ran into this myself and then found your note. After much investigating it turns out that the Linux run level on my AMI's is set to 4 (even though the inittab has it set to 3) and the CRS init script init.ohasd expects 3 and 5. Because of that problem, the "init" process was not able to launch the init.ohasd script.
For now the workaound for this problem is to run the system at run levels 3 or 5 before executing the root script. However, I am still trying to figure out why my AMI's are running at 4.
I am curious, if you do read this, did you get this error during the install and ignore it?
Run Level
This is a prerequisite condition to test whether the system is running with proper run level. (more details)
Expected Value
: 3,5
Actual Value
: 4
I did and of course it didn't work. Also, what Amazon AMI did you use?
Thanks,

Makechroot trouble - GPGME error: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Hi everybody!
I'm currently trying out several DEs with Arch and would like to build Trinity, R14, too. I followed the wiki (which more or less points to this readme).
Things are a bit tricky there, but I ended up with having the tar.gz archives built and moved to the right location as well as placing all the other stuff into the dirs made for it.
Step 4 set up a new chroot for me and everything was well except for a warning that there was no local.db. Since the scripts don't seem to build 'hal-info', 'hal' and 'libutempter', I build packages for them by hand and moved those into $chroot/root/repo. Then I used repo-add local.db.tar.gz $pkgname for each package.
Finally I updated the chroot using mkarchroot -u $chroot/root". It worked well and now I do have a file 'local.db'.
But if I want to build the first package ('tqt3') using the 'bt.sh' script, it works up to the moment where it issues 'sudo makechrootpkg -r /home/myusername/chroot -u'. Pacman starts downloading the dependencies before building, but once it's done with "checking package integrity", I just get several lines of
error: GPGME error: Inappropriate ioctl for device
and than a bunch of lines talling me that $pkgname is "missing required signature".
I'm rather new to Arch and despite having searched the wiki, the forums and google for a while, I'm not really going anywhere. I understand that it's pacman which is unable to cope with the signature thing in the chroot. But what to do about this?Thanks for your answer, cmb!
My problem was solved in an unexpected way, though: Just a few days after I had given up on getting building the Trinity DE myself, someone set up a custom repo for it that was added to the wiki. This was of course by far the easiest solution. But it was also good to mess a little with the build system myself. -

[SOLVED] lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags
I'm migrating to ext4 and I just ran lsattr on / to see if any of it was done. I'm receiving this message:
lsattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device While reading flags on {dev, sys, proc}
The many web sites that I found on this doesn't give me much insight. Is this something to be concerned about?
By the way, I've already done the conversion and fsck seemed to go fine. I haven't run the defrag script yet.Ramses de Norre wrote:Have got the same on ext3, I guess that's because those directories are mountpoints for filesystems that exist only in ram (devfs, procfs etc.).
That makes perfect sense. There is never a day that goes by when someone here doesn't teach me something. Thanks a lot. -

I have an iPhone 5 unlocked but cannot get a payg nano sim for Vodafone uk. Any suggestions ?
If Vodafone does not provide a nano-SIM card, there are no suggestions. Not only is the nano-SIM card smaller, it is also thinner, so cutting a micro-SIM card down to size wouldn't be enough to fit.

I have an HP 4500 printer connected to airport extreme with usb. All our portable notebooks print via air but cannot get iPad to be recognized for printing. Do I really have to have one of the other HPs listed?
Rufus Cat-
Even if it was compatible, AirPrint does not work through a USB link, only Ethernet or WiFi.
I do not see your HP 4500 listed on Apple's list of AirPrint compatible printers. <iOS: AirPrint 101> Therefore you need to take another approach. To start, I suggest you download the free HP App, ePrint Home & Biz. It has limitations, but should get you printing with your existing setup.
There are other printing Apps with more features such as Print n Share and PrintCentral, but they can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option.
Your best option may be to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi. Programs that are reported to do that well are Printopia and FingerPrint. Your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print. <Printopia for Macintosh> <FingerPrint for PC and Mac>
