Well, I didn't say that it has caused h/w problems. I only said that it may have caused problems. Even if it did, it may not show up immediately. It may cause a shortening of disk life, which is not immediately apparent. Sudden disk power downs are always very traumatic. @gokul OMG OMG!!!you make me nerveous!! Just in case you want to know the health of your Hard drive, you can use SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology). In Gnu/Linux, it is made available using smartmontools package. I can give more details if you are interested. @gokul i ran SMART and i was not smart enough to decode the output.Please spare some time analysing the text that follows((Man do it..

[fsug-tvm] deleting an unused sandwich partition without trouble
Hi, I have a peculiar partition problem that should be dealt with. My partitions are as follows: Primary partitions /dev/sda1 Windows TYPE=ntfs /dev/sda2 Linux boot partition TYPE=ext2 /dev/sda3 Windows TYPE=ntfs Extended partition /dev/sda4 Logical partitions /dev/sda5 ntfs /dev/sda6 linux swap /dev/sda7 lvm2pv over dm_crypt The encrypted partition /dev/sda7 is aliased as physical volume /dev/mapper/vgroup . The volume groups is partitioned as follows. /dev/mapper/vgroup: TYPE=lvm2pv /dev/mapper/vgroup-root: TYPE=ext3 /dev/mapper/vgroup-swap: TYPE=swap /dev/mapper/vgroup-usr: TYPE=jfs /dev/mapper/vgroup-var: TYPE=reiserfs /dev/mapper/vgroup-opt: TYPE=xfs /dev/mapper/vgroup-tmp: TYPE=xfs /dev/mapper/vgroup-home: TYPE=ext4 when mounting the partitions, swap is mounted from the lvm, /dev/mapper/vgroup-swap. I accidentally had kept a separate swap partition outside the logical volume which is of no use now. It comes around 1.7 GB, ie, 15% more than my RAM. I wanted to merge it with /dev/sda5, the ntfs logical partition inside the extended partition. But normally, if i do so, the encrypted partition /dev/sda7 will be automatically renamed as /dev/sda6. As /dev/sda7 is currently a linux logical volume, this may create a problem with booting my distro: Arch linux that I had build from base (using kdemod4 as DE). So is there a way out to successfully delete /dev/sda6 and merge it with /dev/sda5 without causing trouble to my GNU system? If I specify partitions with its UUID is fstab, can I succeed in doing so? Otherwise, it would take 2-3 days downloading installing and tweaking the system for my use. regards, Sebin -- Understanding is a three-edged sword: your side, their side, and the truth --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Freedom is the only law.

[fsug-tvm] Filesystem got corrupted after filesystem check.........
Hi, On Sep 2, 1:58 pm, Srihari k harisult...@gmail.com wrote: @gokul OMG OMG!!!you make me nerveous!! Haha! Sorry for that! But remember that you are dealing with a machine. It could fail anytime - be prepared always. Power system and hard drives are especially worrying.

As long as it is backed up with multiple copies, you don't need to worry about anything. @gokul i ran SMART and i was not smart enough to decode the output.Please spare some time analysing the text that follows((Man do it..

As for the SMART data, it is really easy to interpret. The instructions are available in the second link I gave earlier. And looking at your HDD data, looks like it is healthy for now. All the parameters are above their minimum thresholds - meaning that the HDD is safe for now. There are 2 parameters you have to specially watch out for in the future. 1. Seek error rate: Lowest value recorded: 60 (out of 255) Minimum threshold: 30 (out of 255) 2. Spin retry count: Lowest value recorded: 100 (out of 255) Minimum threshold: 97 (out of 255) Both these parameters are 'Pre-fail' type. That means that if they ever touch the minimum threshold or go below it, that indicates impending drive failure. You will have to take emergency measures if such a situation arises. Right now, both parameters are above the threshold, but slowly creeping down towards it. Right now, these are not a problem. But watch out for them in the long run (you can check the data once in a month or two). There is one another parameter, which if improved, can extend drive life: 3. Air flow temperature (deg Celsius): Lowest value recorded: 48 (out of 255) ~ 41 deg (highest recorded). Minimum threshold: 45 (out of 255) This is an 'old-age' type parameter. If this value goes below the threshold (ie, if the drive overheats), the drive performance and health will start to degrade. Low value for this parameter indicates poor air cooling condition. Improving cooling can improve life. If you feel like correcting this condition, you will have to consult a specialist - unfortunately, I am incompetent to comment on it. Hope I was able to address some of your concerns. Wish you good luck with drives and data in the future! Regards, Gokul Das --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Freedom is the only law.
