Hi there list.
Yesterday I had this weird problem with my QMT box. First, the SMTP and POP3
services stopped to answer. So I ssh'ed in and made a qmailctl stat.
Every service looked like this:
supervise: fatal: unable to acquire log/supervise/lock: read-only file system
So I tried to qmailctl stop and start, but neither of them worked. I decided to
reboot. And then I lost connection to the box.
After I made it to the datacenter, i found out that it was stuck in the boot
sequence, waiting for the root password to be entered to make a manual fsck.
I entered passwd, ran 'fsck /' and it fixed some inodes and stuff. It finished
booted and everything went to normal. I forced a fsck with 'shutdown -Fr now'
and found nothing.
So the questions:
1. I found nothing about thise read-only error on the archives. Anyone has any
ideas of what might have happened or where to look for possible causes?
2. Is there a way to configure CentOS to do this fsck on boot completely
unattended? So that it it reboots again there is no need to go to the NOC to
enter root password and run the fsck manually?
