https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247696 Bug ID: 247696 Summary: Boot fails when attempting to mount with gmirror disk from different o/s release Product: Base System Version: 12.1-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: bfriedman@emax.ca In order to upgrade a server running 10.4 using gmirror, shutdown the system and removed one disk. Installed the disk on another machine and proceeded to upgrade to 12.1-release-p2. Installed a new disk on 10.4 system and rebuilt the mirror. Once the 12.1 system build was stable did a gmirror remove on the rebuilt mirror on 10.4 and removed the spare disk. Brought the spare disk over to the new system and attempted a boot with both disks present. The boot produced a series of "init getting kqueues resource limit: Invalid argument" messages. When I attempted to login the login failed and returned to the login: prompt, Syslog showed the Invalid argument message. Disabling the spare disk, 12.1 booted as normal. Attempted to boot the 10.4 system which was on the spare disk and this failed to mount /. Brought the spare disk back to the 10.4 system and the system booted. I believe there is some kind of a mismatch between the 10.4 gmirror disk and what 12.1 is expecting. At this point I have both systems running, should anyone like to have me troubleshoot this. My plan at the moment is to disable the gmirror on the 10.4 system and mount both disks stand alone. Then re-format the spare. I would also like to destroy the 12.1 mirror and proceed to rebuild the mirror from scratch although I am not sure that that is safe. Setting component to kern although it might be gnu. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
