Package: e2fsprogs Version: 1.45.1-1 Severity: normal I just got this mail from cron:
So sorry, the automatic e2scrub of /db on host failed. May 19 03:10:39 host systemd[1]: Starting Online ext4 Metadata Check for /db... May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: /db: Not connnected to a LVM logical volume. May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: Usage: /sbin/e2scrub [OPTIONS] mountpoint | device May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: mountpoint must be on a LVM-managed block device May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: -n: Show what commands e2scrub would execute. May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: -r: Remove e2scrub snapshot and exit, do not check anything. May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: -t: Run fstrim if successful. May 19 03:10:39 host e2scrub@-db[5246]: -V: Print version information and exit. May 19 03:10:41 host systemd[1]: e2scrub@-db.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE May 19 03:10:41 host systemd[1]: e2scrub@-db.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. May 19 03:10:41 host systemd[1]: Failed to start Online ext4 Metadata Check for /db. May 19 03:10:41 host systemd[1]: e2scrub@-db.service: Triggering OnFailure= dependencies. Indeed, running e2scrub on /db manually gives the above output, which is actually correct, as /db is on a dmcrypt device which in turn is on an lvm device. I think either the cron job should not run automatically, or this type of error should be silently ignored. Also, the documentation for the failing e2scrub@.service unit only refers "man:e2scrub(8)" which says nothing about the service (or how to disable it), as far as I can see. (And, a very minor typo, it should be "an LVM", not "a LVM") -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 4.19.27-041927-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=POSIX (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii libblkid1 2.33.1-0.1 ii libc6 2.28-10 ii libcom-err2 1.45.1-1 ii libext2fs2 1.45.1-1 ii libss2 1.44.5-1 ii libuuid1 2.33.1-0.1 Versions of packages e2fsprogs recommends: pn e2fsprogs-l10n <none> Versions of packages e2fsprogs suggests: pn e2fsck-static <none> pn fuse2fs <none> ii gpart 1:0.3-6 ii parted 3.2-25 -- no debconf information
