RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2010-03-23 12:27:11 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.
Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2010-03-29 11:41:15 UTC 
There are 2 issues here:

1) We should not call partedDisk.commit on non partitionable devices which
   hold a disklabel, as the partition table reload ioctl will fail.

2) We should not store /dev/dm-# device node names in actions, but
   rather /dev/mapper/xxxxx-yyyyy names, as the /dev/dm-# name can change
   when we deactivate and re-activate things.

I'm going to clone this bug, and keep this one for issue 1 (for which I'll send a patch to the list for review).

I'm going to assign issue 2 to Dave Lehman who knows that part of the code
best.
Comment 5 Hans de Goede 2010-03-31 08:21:15 UTC 
This is fixed in anaconda-13.21.23-1, moving to modified.
Comment 7 Alexander Todorov 2010-07-09 13:02:45 UTC 
Jan,
do you remember how you triggered this? What kind of setup you had/what actions were performed?
Comment 8 Jan F. Chadima 2010-07-11 14:25:03 UTC 
on disk arranging I've set use whole disc, and use disc without valid partition table.
Comment 9 Jan Stodola 2010-08-25 14:55:46 UTC 
Successfully verified on build RHEL6.0-20100818.0 with anaconda-13.21.78-1.el6.

Moving to VERIFIED.
