during debugging of a script, I interrupted it with a control c. that
was last Friday. since then, I have not been able to remove the snap
shots that were created. I get:
# fssnap -F ufs -d /
fssnap: ioctl: error 16: Device busy
I have done a variety of things trying to figure this out, including
googling, man pages, and sunsolve. First, the information:
# /usr/lib/fs/ufs/fssnap -i
Snapshot number : 0
Block Device : /dev/fssnap/0
Raw Device : /dev/rfssnap/0
Mount point : /
Device state : active

Maximum backing store size : Unlimited
Snapshot create time : Fri May 27 16:13:35 2005
Copy-on-write granularity : 32 KB
Snapshot number : 1
Block Device : /dev/fssnap/1
Raw Device : /dev/rfssnap/1
Mount point : /export/home
Device state : active
Backing store path : /var/scratch <UNLINKED>

/dev/fssnap/1 984861 1693 924077 1% /tmp/.rlg.BkaOpz/.rlg.BkaOpz
I've tried several variations with lsof checking for processes that
might have an open file on the snapshot or have the snapshot device or
mount point open. All come up blank.
I've also looked for zombie processes that might be connected with the
ufsdump commands that were running. As I recall, I had to kill the
ufsdump last Friday. There is nothing running now related to that and
there are no processes that began on Friday except devfsadmd. I'm not
sure I get that. On my other system the date on that process matches the
system boot date. This system was booted several weeks ago, but the
devfsadmd process date is Friday.
I don't really want to reboot, because several critical network
processes are running on this server. However, if no one can come up
with a better idea, then I will reboot. Need backups.
TIA
