|
What would cause my filesystem to become set in readonly mode? It usually chugs along fine for a few days and then it suddenly stops executing anything (mysql stops responding and I can't execute "reboot" and it stops writing to log files). It requires a hard system reboot to get it back into a workable mode. I've looked around my system as much as I could and have found nothing in particular that is weird or out of place. I would like to avoid a full system reinstall as this box is coloed 3 hours away from me. |

Well, this case seemed different from the other as the other one would happen every 5 days or so like clockwork. I ran in to this problem today just 24 hours after I had done a hard reboot on the system. Unlike the other problem I described I was able to ssh into the system and I could ps and top. ps showed a ton of defunct processes. Process usage on the entire system was < 5% and the file system was somehow in readonly mode. In the other problem it never told me the system was in readonly mode, it would just give me a bin/bash error or not respond.
The other problem was vague at best, this one is at least related to hardware/the filesystem, so I thought it would be best to branch into a forum related to the subject. |
