Subject: umount fails with device is busy
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2011 03:53:04 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <31199414.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)
I'm trying to run xfs_repair on my filesystem:
Firstly to unmount the fs
Quote:
umount /myfs
umount: /myfs: device is busy
umount: /myfs: device is busy
Quote:
lsof /dev/sda
-show none ie nothing seems to be 'touching' the disk.
confused why its still showing device is busy
i did a force unmount then
Quote:
#umount -l /dev/sda
but then when I try to run xfs_repair
Quote:
xfs_repair -n /dev/sda, it
xfs_repair: /dev/sda contains a mounted and writable filesystem
fatal error -- couldn't initialize XFS library
lsof /dev/sda
shows nothing ie nothing seems to be 'touching' the disk.
makes me wonder whether this is a xfs issue now??
Any thoughts???
Thanks
David
