Re: Filesystem won't unmount (SOLUTIONS)



Thank you all for your help!

I will use the procedures that you have given me the next
time that this happens.

(Unfortunately, my "maintenance window" was closing fast and
I was forced to reboot)

:0(

Here are some of the commands that were suggested:



What does,
"fuser -xuc /fs_name" , say?

If you don't care about applications getting killed then do this,
fuser -kxuc /fs_name

Is there a filesystem mounted over this filesystem?
Do this, "df -kt|grep fs_name".



and:



Did you check for unlinked files with fuser? (-d flag, iirc, but check the
man page.)

Failing that, lsof, if you have it.

Thanks again!
