Sounds like a bug where the OS fails to read the partition table again. I'd file a bug with Red Hat on it. I doubt we can do anything about this other than to say not to use that snippet, which is less than optimum. I might check scsi-rescan from rhel6 and try doing what it does. That might get the kernel to reevaluate its environment and not panic. I'd do it after the keep_rhn_host_keys snippet runs. -- Scott Henson Red Hat CIS Operator WVU Alum BSAE/BSME
