Subject: [Question] how to avoid process hang without disk space
Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 11:06:05 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120703030605.GA30077@shangw> (raw)
Recently, we're encountering one problem that caused by full disk drives.
I'm not sure if there has any method to recover from the situation?
When the problem happened, I couldn't kill the process with signal 9.
Also, the "reboot" would cause system hang as well.
Here's the backtrace from kernel.
=================================
INFO: task jbd2/dm-0-8:463 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
