Hi people (and others)
Ok so in order to mount an add on devices like ext HD, I need to run
multipath -F to clear mount points. Otherwise it says the mount point is
busy.
So here's how it goes. I have hotswap bays installed.
If take out one drive and insert and other I get the typical msg
Unable to mount this device.
Potential reasons include:
Improper device and/or user privilege level
Corrupt data on storage device
Technical details:
org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Error.Failed: Error mounting /dev/sdj1
at /media/Preview1: Command-line
`mount -t "jfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid"
"/dev/sdj1" "/media/Preview1"'
exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: /mnt/Preview1: /dev/sdj1 already
mounted or mount point busy.
Then, as root, I run multipath -F and all it good.
It just started doing this, this morning?
Anything I should look for?
Kate
Hi Kate,
it seems udisks2 has issues with that. Apologies for the stupid questions.
1) Did you correctly unmount (and possible ejected - not sure what is required for hot
swappable disks) the disk first,
before removing it?
2) Did you verify the path is no longer used after step 1?
Cheers
Michele
