Oracle VM: root (/) or /boot Filesystems Go Read-Only when a Path Fails on Multipathed LUN (Doc ID 1215384.1)

Last updated on MAY 09, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle VM - Version 2.1 and later
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later
Generic Linux

Symptoms

Oracle VM Server installed in a multipathed LUN (/boot, / and swap). When a specific SAN cable is detached the /boot filesystem (and sometimes the root filesystem at /) becomes read-only. It may also lead to system hangs or unconditional reboots.

The cables, SAN and HBAs are working properly. So it is confirmed that nothing is wrong with them.

Changes

New installation.
