-Subject: [PATCH] Provide alternate method to allow (expected) pre-frozen
- filesystems
-
-RH-Author: Ani Sinha <None>
-RH-MergeRequest: 30: Provide alternate method to allow (expected) pre-frozen filesystems when taking a quiesced snapshot.
-RH-Jira: RHEL-7012
-RH-Commit: [1/1] 07570fcdc1fd697d54268e530fc64162eb2a0bdb
-
-Effective with open-vm-tools 12.2.0, Linux quiesced snapshots will fail if
-any filesystem(s) have been prefrozen by other than the vmtoolsd process.
-This has been done to assure that filesystems are inactive while the
-snapshots are being taken. Some existing prefreeze scripts may be freezing
-some filesystem(s). In these cases, the vmtoolsd process must be informed of
-anticipated pre-frozen filesystems by providing an "excludedFileSystem" list in
-the [vmbackup] section of the tools.conf file.
-
-This change provides a new switch in the tools.conf file to allow pre-frozen
-filesystems to be encountered and accepted when doing a quiesced snapshot
-operation. With the default value of "false", the "ignoreFrozenFileSystems"
-can be configured with a setting of "true" to notify the quiesced snapshot
-operation that pre-frozen filesystems are allowed.
-
-(cherry picked from commit 60c3a80ddc2b400366ed05169e16a6bed6501da2)
