fdisk -l - messaggio: doesn't contain a valid partition table

Programmazione e Server Server
#1

Ciao a tutti,
Scusate se vi stresso come al solito ma ho notato questo messaggio mentre aggiungevo un disco nuovo su 3 server,

La macchina sembra funzionare ma ho paura che in caso di reboot dia problemi.

[code]fdisk -l

Sembra che i dischi /dev/sdb e /dev/sdc non presentino alcuna partition table. Sono nuovi? Ti risulta che dovrebbero contenere dati?
Per maggiore scrupolo possiamo vedere

[code]

parted /dev/sd** print

mdadm -E /dev/sd**

mdadm --detail --scan --verbose

lvmdiskscan

pvscan

vgscan

lvscan

[/code]****

non sono nuovi, io me ne sono accorto per caso dovendo aggiungerne un altro per aumentare lo spazio:

Scusate credo di aver inserito la VM sbagliata in precedenza

Analizzando gli output forniti possiamo ragionevolmente concludere che i dischi /dev/sdb e /dev/sdc non presentano partition table dal momento che sono stati marcati nella loro interezza come Physical Volumes.
Le indicazioni fornite dai comandi pvs e lvmdiskscan sono congruenti in tal senso e non sembra essere presente alcun refuso di eventuale ex impiego di tali unità disco in volumi raid.

Personalmente preferisco partizionare comunque i dischi che prevedo di utilizzare in un contesto di LVM e successivamente marcare le partizioni come type 8e (LVM Physical Volume) quindi configurarle come PV per mezzo del comando pvcreate; questo accorgimento consente inoltre di assegnare all’occorrenza lo spazio disponibile in Volume Groups differenti.

Tuttavia LVM permette anche di utilizzare interi dischi (come nel tuo caso) come Physical Volumes, senza procedere necessariamente ad un preliminare partizionamento degli stessi.

Confido quindi nel fatto che il tuo server non ti giochi qualche brutto scherzo al prossimo reboot :wink:

Ciao

Grazie Cupo,
Scherzi non me ne ha fatto per ora, sono stati gia reboottati un paio di volte, sono servers di test, non so chi sia stata la bestia che ha configurato cosi ma spero che non decidano mai di metterli in produzione :smiley:
