Cif mount

2020-04-15 Thread Peter
Hello

I have installed cifs-utils and samba.

While mounting a windows share I gave a users UID who will have access to
that share from Linux. Now I would like to have another set of user who
need access to that Share.

Is there a way to permit access to more than one user for a CIF mount ?

hmm, this looks strange

have you changed the partition type to "LVM" in fdasd for the new DASD?

what does "lvm pvs" or "lvm vgs" in the emergency shell say?

If I see right, then kernel sees both the DASDs, so the problem will be
in LVM.

Re: Adding disk to root LVM with RHEL 7

2020-04-15 Thread Marcy Cortes
I'm with you, Alice:)  I had a weird one over the weekend with similar errors 
on a server and fought with it for hours (couldn't get a path).  I eventually 
moved it to a different volume and it worked.  Then moved it back and it didn't.
then cpfmtxa'd the volume and all was well.  I opened a PRM with VM since I 
don't see how that could have been Linux or the HW.  The volume I moved to was 
right next door on the same LCU. 

Anyway, that's not your problem :)

cat that file called /run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt  when you are in the Dracut 
emergency shell and cut and paste it here. 

We did have a similar thing with new disks like you had when we went to sles 12 
sp4 on several servers, but there was a SUSE bug that was fixed.  The udev 
rules were named differently and I suspect that had something to do with it.  
Mark P may know more details.

Marcy,

Did you check zipl.conf to see if you need to list the disk in the rd.dasd line 
or cio_ignore (which is so unnecessary when running under z/VM).

Looks like you did everything right: online, dasdfmt, fdasd, lvextend, 
vgextend, and using "1" instead of the whole disk (because it's ECKD and 
requires the VTOC).

The first block where you get an error is 16380912. Maybe that's a clue?
Looks like cylinder #109206 (150 4K blocks per ECKD cyl). Someone check my 
math? And the (new) root FS looks like 110100 cyls.
The VG has two disks, correct? How big are they?
So where is this troublesome block in the grand scheme?

I don't recall resizing a filesystem *down*, but I think it can be done.
I'm always nervous about that last block (or several) in any filesystem, any 
backing store (CKD, FBA, SCSI/SAN), anymode (LVM, partitioned, whole).
Never know when the system or some program will walk to the end "just because".

Do yourself a favor and remove the cio_ignore parameter from
/etc/zipl.conf entirely. It's a z/VM guest, it doesn't need that. At
all. If you were a brand-new z/VM systems programmer that had tons of
unnecessary devices defined, that would be different. But, you're not. :)

Marcy,

Did you check zipl.conf to see if you need to list the disk in the rd.dasd line 
or cio_ignore (which is so unnecessary when running under z/VM).

I'm kind of assuming RH7 works like sles11 and doesn't use grub2, but did you 
"mkinird; zipl" after getting that disk online?

You can also "cat / run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt" in that emergency mode to 
get more details.

Looks like you did everything right: online, dasdfmt, fdasd, lvextend, 
vgextend, and using "1" instead of the whole disk (because it's ECKD and 
requires the VTOC).

The first block where you get an error is 16380912. Maybe that's a clue?
Looks like cylinder #109206 (150 4K blocks per ECKD cyl). Someone check my 
math? And the (new) root FS looks like 110100 cyls.
The VG has two disks, correct? How big are they?
So where is this troublesome block in the grand scheme?

I don't recall resizing a filesystem *down*, but I think it can be done.
I'm always nervous about that last block (or several) in any filesystem, any 
backing store (CKD, FBA, SCSI/SAN), anymode (LVM, partitioned, whole).
Never know when the system or some program will walk to the end "just because".

Re: Adding disk to root LVM with RHEL 7

2020-04-15 Thread Cohen, Sam
Marcy,

Did you check zipl.conf to see if you need to list the disk in the rd.dasd line 
or cio_ignore (which is so unnecessary when running under z/VM).

Thanks,

Sam

I'm kind of assuming RH7 works like sles11 and doesn't use grub2, but did you 
"mkinird; zipl" after getting that disk online?

You can also "cat / run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt" in that emergency mode to 
get more details.

Looks like you did everything right: online, dasdfmt, fdasd, lvextend, 
vgextend, and using "1" instead of the whole disk (because it's ECKD and 
requires the VTOC).

The first block where you get an error is 16380912. Maybe that's a clue?
Looks like cylinder #109206 (150 4K blocks per ECKD cyl). Someone check my 
math? And the (new) root FS looks like 110100 cyls.
The VG has two disks, correct? How big are they?
So where is this troublesome block in the grand scheme?

I don't recall resizing a filesystem *down*, but I think it can be done.
I'm always nervous about that last block (or several) in any filesystem, any 
backing store (CKD, FBA, SCSI/SAN), anymode (LVM, partitioned, whole).
Never know when the system or some program will walk to the end "just because".

Adding disk to root LVM with RHEL 7

2020-04-15 Thread Martha McConaghy
I have servers that I'm setting up with RHEL 7.8 on ECKD disk.  I installed it 
with root in an LVM, all of that worked fine.  Now, I'm testing adding a 2nd 
ECKD disk to the LVM as I know that will be required in the future, but I'm 
running into a confusing problem.  Everything works as I expect and the disk 
space shows up in / as it should.  When I reboot the server, however, it goes 
to heck and ends up in emergency mode.  The most prominent feature of the 
console are a bunch of I/O errors on device dm-2, which is the disk I just 
added.  Below are the steps I followed to add the disk.  Before doing this, I 
had activated the disk, added it to /etc/dasd.conf and run zipl.  After doing 
that, I rebooted to ensure that the disk came up online, which it did.  So, I'm 
confident that the disk is there when the system rebooted the 2nd time.

I have a lot of colleagues who work with Linux all the time, but don't usually 
have root as an LVM.  They haven't seen this problem before, but they work 
mainly on X.  Could this be specific problem to using ECKD?  I have thought of 
going to an FBA LUN, but had spare ECKD to use.
