Re: XFS Kernel Panics in CentOS

[Mark Rechler <mrechler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Eric,

Thank you for the reply. We are running CentOS 5.8, with the 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5.centos.plus kernel as it was mentioned in a bug report that has similar behavior, but ultimately a different kernel panic (http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=4089). We have tried running xfs_repair in the past and it has not proved useful. The odd part is that these are fresh systems (just installed). If it helps, we are also running glusterfs on these boxes though load does not always correlate to a kernel panic.

Thanks,
Mark

Saying which CentOS it is would help ;)  And, standard disclaimers about how CentOS doesn't come with upstream _or_ distro support, etc etc...

But xfs_da_do_buf(2) indicates on-disk corruption, having encountered a bad magic number when reading from the disk.  Have you tried xfs_repair?
