# umount /dev/sdd
umount: /dev/sdd: device is busy
umount: /dev/sdd: device is busy
In the following sections, we will summarize what we have found.
What Was Keeping the Device Busy?
On Linux platforms, you can use fuser command to find what processes have been keeping your device busy. The fuser command lists the process numbers of local processes that use the local or remote files specified by the File parameter. For block special devices, the command lists the processes that use any file on that device. For example, here is what we have found with fuser command:
# fuser -m /dev/sdd
/dev/sdd: 24381c 24393ce 24449ce
In the listing, each process number is followed by a letter indicating how the process uses the file[2]:
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| c | Uses the file as the current directory. |
| e | Uses the file as a program's executable object. |
| r | Uses the file as the root directory. |
| s | Uses the file as a shared library (or other loadable object). |
What Application It Is Given a Process Number?
To find which application it is given its process number, you can use:
# ps auxw|grep 24381
oracle 24381 0.0 0.0 63868 1160 ? S Dec19 0:00 /bin/sh -f /home/oracle/atg/IDM_11gR1.PS4.RC4/Oracle_IDM1/bin/emctl asstart agent
# ps auxw|grep 24393
oracle 24393 0.0 0.0 88552 10904 ? S Dec19 0:01 /home/oracle/atg/IDM_11gR1.PS4.RC4/Oracle_IDM1/perl/bin/perl /home/oracle/atg/IDM_11gR1.PS4.RC4/Oracle_IDM1/bin/emwd.pl agent /home/oracle/atg/IDM_11gR1.PS4.RC4/Instances/asinst_1/EMAGENT/EMAGENT/sysman/log/emagent.nohup
# ps auxw|grep 24449
oracle 24449 0.0 0.3 318624 38424 ? Sl Dec19 0:09 /home/oracle/atg/IDM_11gR1.PS4.RC4/Oracle_IDM1/bin/emagent
- $MW_HOME/asinst_1/bin/opmnctl stopall
Normally, "opmnctl stopall"[5] should be able to stop opmn and all managed processes. However, there are some mis-configured host names in our Management Agent property file:
- $MW_HOME/asinst_1/EMAGENT/EMAGENT/sysman/config/emd.properties
which have caused orphaned processes unresponsive.
After stopping these orphaned processes by force, we are able to unmount /dev/sdd file system and have it checked by e2fsck command.
