Subject: [Bug 12742] New: Spinning up disk is observed on standby paths until timeout, resulting in longer path restoration time.
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 02:20:26 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-12742-11613@http.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12742
Summary: Spinning up disk is observed on standby paths until
timeout, resulting in longer path restoration time.
Product: SCSI Drivers
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.27
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Priority: P1
Component: Other
AssignedTo: scsi_drivers-other@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: narayanan.rengarajan@hp.com
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.27
Earliest failing kernel version:
Distribution: suse
Hardware Environment:x86_64
Software Environment:sd
Problem Description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. present a standby lun to the host
2. do a discovery from the host (scan the scsi bus)
3. Spinning of disks is observed in /var/log/messages
Whenever a device goes offline and comes back, the new sd device takes longer
time to get created. This is because of the spinning up of disk in
sd_spinup_disk fuction as the standby paths would return device not ready with
0x04/0x0b asc/ascq.
recommended patch :
