Known issues

Previous Next


Backing up a Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® (RHEL) 5.1 Client might fail with the following error:
Cannot find the Xen® hypervisor file which the system was booted with. Without this, it is not possible to perform a system installation. You should create the file /storix/config/multibootfile with a line specifying the full path to the hypervisor file and recreate the boot media.
1
Open “/boot/grub/grub.conf”, and find the section from which the machine was booted.
It is similar to the following: kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-53.el5
2
Create a file named “/storix/config/multibootfile” with a line specifying the full path to the hypervisor file as shown in the following example: /boot/xen.gz-2.6.18-53.el5
If the SCSI or network devices are not available upon booting from the Storix® boot media, it might indicate that your device modules are not included on the boot media or not listed in the master modules file.
1
Issue the following command to copy the original “bootlist” file to your custom directory: # cp /opt/storix/config/bootlist_scsi /storix/config/bootlist_scsi
NOTE: Use “bootlist_network” files when adding an entry for network driver and “bootlist_scsi” files when adding an entry for SCSI driver.
2
Open the “bootlist” file in the custom directory, and add your SCSI device modules following #$ SCSI adapters and network device modules following "#$ Ethernet Network Adapters.
Use the following format to add the modules: #MOD:S:module name:description
Example: #MOD:S:dc395x_trm:DC-395U SCSI adapter support
On an Ubuntu® client, the Storix maintenance shell does not return the maint> prompt after a restore. This issue occurs because /bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash in Ubuntu. When the restore completes, Storix does a chroot to the newly restored root and invokes /bin/sh. This shell does not display any prompt.
Workaround: Use the View/Change Installation Settings feature in Storix to adjust the partition sizes.
1
From the Main Menu in Storix, select View/Change Installation Settings > Logical Volume Management > Add or Change Logical Volume.
3
Change the Stripe Size from 0 to the size that was originally configured.
4
To return to the Main Menu, press F3 on each selection screen.
