Stale nfs handle on root partition

To show how bad is the crisis - i had to write the answer to the register question of these forums *by hand* on my phone to post this.
yesterday my computer stopped browsing the internet, and after talking with NetworkManager i found that there is a stale nfs handle on resolv.conf.
I tried fsck on startup but got nothing.
e2fsck reply was "The superblock could not be read" and to try running e2fsck -b 8193.
I ran it and got the same answer.
I tried to run in in single user mode and got the same answer plus "bad magic number"
So i tried running mkfs -n /dev/sda3(root)but can't because the partition is mounted.
any ideas?
I can't post detailed logs because my computer has no internet and I can't copy paste

There's no point saying it, you have to write it in a post on the forums.
resolv.conf is a text file on the local filesystem. A stale nfs handle won't stop you from editing that file.
I'm guessing you might have a setup that deviates from the norm, it's hard to know for sure as you have provided so little info.
Hope you eventually sort it out.

  • Stale NFS handle after failover

    Hello!
    We are using two cluster nodes provide an NFS server. When a failover occurs, the users which have mounted their home directory are unable to delete any directories. The error message is "device or resource busy". They have to log out and an administrator has to unmount the home directory.
    How can I avoid this? The clients are Ubuntu 8.04.
    TIA
    Stephan

    Today I patched the systems and got the following error on the console:
    ERROR: svc:/network/nfs/nlockmgr:default: :kill with no contract
    ERROR: svc:/network/nfs/status:default: :kill with no contractPerhaps this has to do with my current problem?

  • [PPC] Arch tries to boot from a root partition on NFS

    I just finished installing Arch on my Powerbook G4 when during boot it hangs trying to boot off of a root partition via NFS.  I set my root partition as /dev/sda4 during the install process and didn't configure anything for a remote root partition.  The error that I get is:
    Root-NFS: no NFS server address
    VFS: Unabled to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
    VFS: Insert root floppy and press ENTER
    When I press the enter button nothing happens, I followed the installation guide on the Arch wiki Install Arch Linux PPC, I had to use the older method because the newer /arch/setup failed to see me hard drive even though mac-fdisk could see it.

    Any ideas?

  • Various errors after upgrade (stale file handle, corrupt file)

    Hi,
    I performed a system update a couple of days ago and since then have not been able to access certain directories (it seems to be only my home directory and any directory in my Dropbox) using graphical file browsers (tested with thunar and nautilus). I can access them through the command line just fine but graphical file browsers give me a "Stale file handle" error.
    When I try to open a libreoffice application, I get the following error: "The application cannot be started. The configuration file "/etc/libreoffice/bootstraprc" is corrupt".

    Hi, thanks for the reply
    /etc/libreoffice/bootstraprc  looks like this:
    [ErrorReport]
    ErrorReportPort=80
    ErrorReportServer=report.libreoffice.org
    [Bootstrap]
    InstallMode=<installmode>
    ProductKey=LibreOffice 4.2
    UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/libreoffice/4
    Is this of any use?
    EDIT: through finding more applications that don't work I'm beiginning to suspect it is something to do with GTK. QT apps seem unaffected whereas GTK apps are all a bit upset. I can, for example, access my home directory just fine in dino (qt) and ranger (ncurses).
    EDIT 2: It appears only gtk2 apps are affected. gtk3 apps seem OK
    EDIT 3: I never found a solution, I reformatted the partition and started again (it was only my home partition). I am now back to using ext4.

  • Fsck on root partition without live CD

    Hi,
    For some unknown reason, I have to manually repair the root filesystem, but obviously every time I try, fsck tells me that the partition is mounted.
    I know I could use some live CD, or pendrive, but turns out my live CD is VERY scratched, and my BIOS can't boot from a pendrive. Of course I could go and buy another cd, but there must be another way, so here I am.
    Back in the old days, with sysv init, the only thing I had to do was enter the single-user-mode, and do the repair. Now, it is impossible, because "/" is always mounted. I've tried "systemd.unit=rescue.target" from grub, and "mount -o remount,ro /", I also prayed to my computer, but none of these things worked.
    So, is there any way to fsck the root partition without using a pendrive or live cd?
    Thank you.

    You may not be able to directly boot from a pendrive, but you can boot to your bootloader.  From the bootloader, it should be possible to start Arch from the pendrive.  I am not at my Arch machine right now, and ssh'ing into it won't let me play in Grub, but I think Grub should be able to handle USB drives out-of-the-box.  If not, I know the correct drivers can be installed to the boot partition.
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gr … _From_GRUB talks of how to modify the Grub menu to do this, but you should be able to hand-fly Grub by adapting this.

  • The stavfs() hangs for stale NFS mount

    Hi,
    When the remote server from where a NFS file system is mounted is down, we get the stale NFS
    mount error.
    An application that just reads the entries of /etc/mnttab and does the statvfs() on all the file systems will
    hang infinitely. The control is within the statvfs() call. The application goes into a uninterruptible sleep mode. Signals like SIGALARM or SIGPIPE are not handled. Only the signals like SIGTERM, SIGHUP,
    SIGKILL are getting handled.
    One solution which we considered was to check for the availability of the remote host before calling the
    statvfs(). This can be done by sending ICMP packets to the remote host. But this method will not work
    on the servers which restricts the ICMP packets (for some security reasons).
    Is there any other way to avoid this problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Rams.

    And again. Since 280 people have looked at my post and not one could help me I assume that there's no solution to my problem?
    If that's true I would appreciate it if you tell me, and if there's a solution you know, or if you have any idea how to solve this, please reply.

  • Resize root partition within a PVM

    Hello - I have found any information about this searching the forum, but I am trying to re-size the root partition that comes with one of the PVM templates (some of them are really small). In order to do this, you need to boot into an ISO.
    With a PVM, you cannot boot directly to an ISO...you have to network boot from an NFS share using the contents of the ISO. Same way you would deploy a PVM from ISO.
    My problem comes in when I need to get into "linux rescue" mode at the grub prompt when you first boot to the ISO normally. This prompt does not seem to come up when network booting to the ISO. Does anyone know the proper steps to do this?

    I think I figured this out. I had to...
    - Delete the swap partition (because it's the last one by default with the template, xvdb3).
    - Delete the root partition (xvdb2).
    - Re-create root partition with same starting block and partition number (but reserve space for swap, I left 2gb).
    - Re-create swap partition with remaining space, and assign swap type of 82.
    - Reboot, and run resize2fs on root partitions (I'm currently at this stage but it looks like this will work fine).
    - Shutdown the VM, detaching the disk that was resized, and attached it back to original VM. Then start the VM.
    - mkswap /dev/xvda3 (on swap partition)
    - swapon /dev/xvda3
    - free -m (to view new swap space)

  • .wine is placed in /root partition intead of /home

    I am attempting to install Steam, but have an issue.  I made separate partitions when I installed Arch for /root, /boot, /swap, and /home.  My /root partition is not very large (~8Gb if I remember correctly) and therefore is unable to handle large files (such as all of the Orange Box games under Steam). 
    I am installing steam as per the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam), and when I do winecfg for the first time to create an initial ~/.wine, it makes the folder on my /root partition instead of my /home partition, like I want it.  As a result, when I attempt to install steam games (such as TF2), it does not have enough disk space.
    Is there a way to make winecfg make the .wine folder in a different directory (and have wine point to it), or did I do something wrong by making /root a separate partition?
    Thanks in advance.

  • [CLOSED + MOVED]Activate lvm2 on ext3 root partition

    Hello guys,
    I want to move to lvm2 on my arch installation, I haven't used any lvm before. So here's what I did so far:
    1. shrink root partition using gparted to 7 gigabytes
    2. created an lvm partition with size 8 gigabytes
    3. migrated all files from the root partition to the lvm partition (in single user mode: # rsync -axSX / /newpartition)
    4. added lvm2 hook before the filesystems hook in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf according to http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Con … #Using_lvm
    5. regenerated the initramfs image using # sudo mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26.img
    5a. added a grub entry with root=/dev/vg/root (I have no idea what the difference is between that and /dev/mapper/vg-root)
    5b. edited /etc/fstab to use /dev/vg/root (again, no idea if /dev/mapper/vg-root would have been more appropriate) as root mountpoint "/"
    6. Rebooted
    7. Unfortunately, I cannot copy-paste the output, but upon reboot, the initramfs loads fine, it seems to recognize to lvm2 volume, but then says "trying to open console - not found" or something like that and then kernel panics on me.
    Any ideas?
    thanks!

    I used reiserfs for many years, many partitions, many distros and had no problems. Every now and then I'd use ext3 but there were a few issues. I got a new laptop in January and decided to take the plunge: shrunk vista, small ext2 /boot and the rest set up as an encrypted partition with LVM2, all logical volumes set up as ext4 (except swap!). I've been very impressed with ext4 stability.
    Oh, and step (5) edit fstab to reflect the new file systems, make sure /etc/mtab doesn't exist.

  • Copied my Arch root partition to a new one but I can't boot [SOLVED]

    I booted to my arch live cd and copied my Arch / partition (/dev/sda1) to an empty partition (/dev/sda9) via a cp -a command.  The new partition should now contains an exact copy of my old root partition.  I also modified the /etc/fstab in the new partition to reflect the new block device for the root filesystem.  I also added a line to my menu.lst to boot it.  I didn't do something right because I get a kernel panic when grub boots into the new partition.
    menu.lst entry:
    title Arch Testing
    root (hd0,8)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda9 ro quiet vga=773 acpi_enforce_resources=lax vga=773
    initrd /boot/kernel26.img
    Ideas?
    EDIT: Just read this wiki page
    The fix as root:
    mount /dev/sda9 /mnt
    cd /mnt/dev
    rm console ; mknod -m 600 console c 5 1
    rm null ; mknod -m 666 null c 1 3
    rm zero ; mknod -m 666 zero c 1 5
    mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev
    mount -t proc none /mnt/proc
    mount -o bind /sys /mnt/sys
    cd /
    chroot /mnt /bin/bash
    mkinitcpio -p kernel26

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

  • Root partition suddenly full while updating packages with Pacman

    Hello
    I'm not sure if this is a problem with Pacman, but my root partition seems to have become completely full while updating my system using pacman -Syu. Before updating anything, there seems to have been an update to a new version of Pacman (3.3.1-1) that needed to be installed before updating packages.
    In the middle of the updates, I got this error:
    error: error writing to file '/var/cache/pacman/pkg/openoffice-base-3.1.1-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz': No space left on device
    Also, I don't know if this is related, but I got a lot of 'not found' errors after that.
    The entire output from everything:

    Also, I haven't restarted my system yet. Should I try and see what happens?
    Thanks!

    This happened to me recently. I could not restart my laptop properly due to lack of space on my root partition.
    The error during boot was along the lines of:-
    Starting D-BUS system messagebus   - Failed
    Failed to start message bus: Failed to close "var/run/dbus.pid": No space left on drive
    Hardware Abstraction Layer - Failed
    everything else during the boot was as normal till I started to type in my username - but couldn't because the keyboard was inactive.
    I used a Wolvix live CD to investigate and found a QT4 file in the packman cache which was 6.9GB in size (compared to the normal 27mb size). Once that was deleted and the drive/partition error checked everything was back to normal. So before you reboot I would definitely recommend clearing any oversize file out of your packman cache, or just clearing the whole cache.

  • How big of a root partition should I have?

    I am new to Archlinux and Linux in general. I recently installed my first Arch system but I have not yet installed a desktop environment for I am trying to learn the command line.  I was planning on using this weekend to set up a desktop environment but I cannot decide which one to use, so I will try them all (or at least Gnome and Xfce).  My question is how big of a root partition should I have to give me ample space to play around including having more than one desktop environment installed at once.  I currently have a 20 GB hard drive with my root partition set to 4 GB.
    Thank You

  • [solved] unable to boot to the root partition on my new (usb) HDD

    hello,
    i got a "unable to determine major/minor number of root device" error message when the system try to find the root partition (after it succefully boot on the boot partition).
    Shuttle XPC SB65G2 (Mainboard FB65), usb HDD: Intenso INIC-1608L, Linux ctkarch 2.6.37-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT, grub legacy.
    sdb1: /boot (ext2), sdb2: swap, sdb3: / (ext4), sdb4: /home (ext4)
    of course i have a kernel compiled with usb in HOOKS in mkinitcpio.conf.
    i tried to install with sdb1: / (ext4), sdb2: swap, sdb3: /home (ext4)
    but i got another error: it can't find the file /dev/blabla (root partition) (after it succefully boot on the partition!).
    at last i found the solution: i have to comment "root (hdx,x)" in menu.lst for grub legacy!:
    # (0) Arch Linux
    title Arch Linux
    # root (hd1,0)
    kernel ... by-uuid...
    you don't need this line when you define by uuid, by label, or so...
    it seems this line perturbs the behavior of the system.
    if this can help...

    You do not need the "raw". If you do:
    ok devalias
    it will show you how other aliases are formed
    do ls -l /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 and you'll see the "non-raw" device path
    ok reset
    will "lock" your alias in NVRAM but it will attempt to boot from boot-device (normally disk) the next time unless auto-boot? is set to false
    ok setenv auto-boot? false
    My guess is that it could not understand "raw", reset, and booted from boot-device.
    You can:
    ok setenv auto-boot? false
    ok nvunalias altboot
    ok nvalias altboot /pci@1f,0/ide@d/dad@2,0
    ok reset
    ok boot altboot

  • Can't get lvm/luks to boot - cannot find root partition

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get a dm-crypt on top of lvm to boot but without success so far. I followed http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sys … r_dm-crypt and http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … AID_or_LVM, everything works fine (I can mount the partition) but when I try to boot from it, it cannot find the crypted partition and fails.
    USELVM="yes"
    HOOKS="base udev usb usbinput lvm2 encrypt filesystems"
    root=/dev/mapper/sda2 cryptdevice=/dev/sda2:root2-lvol0 ro

    /dev/mapper/root is my current encrypted / without lvm
    The boot process successfully identifies the lvm /dev/mapper/root2-lvol0 and continues with hook 'encrypt' but doesn't ask me for a passphrase but goes on to hook 'filesystems' and fails then because it can't mount the correct root-partition obviously.
    There's only /dev/mapper/root2-lvol0 and /dev/mapper/control when I'm in the rescue sh from initrd.
    Anyone got that combination to work?

    Reboot, at the sound of the chime (not before) depress the option key, when the startup manager appears choose OSX.

  • [SOLVED]root partition read only after update systemd

    After update systemd today, the systemd-remount-fs.service fail to start. Root filesystem is read only I tried add rw to fstab mount option, but the root parition is still  read only. I noticed that util-linux package are installed and udev package is dropped , Does it related to my problem?
    Please advice me.
    Sorry for my bad English.
