Hi All,

I have a server who all the time when the server is reboot (forced by power failure) require CTRL+D to continue. This is very annoying because I need to ask someone all the time to make this operation.

How can I correct this error?

Thank you.

The server only ask if it needs user intervention, i.e. to correct files system inconsistencies.

You can't change that. But you can by yourself an UPS.

I have an UPS...but sometimes the power failure it's bigger then UPS capacity.

I understand that....but what what we need to check. Where I can see the errors. I look in /var/log files but I can't find anything...

On the console - when you press <ctrl-d>

On the console - when you press <ctrl-d>

When I press CTRL+D the system ask me for root password and that's it. wait for a command. To continue load the system we type Exit and press Enter.
No instructions about the maintenance command.

That's why I ask where to search in LOG to see what is the error and what I can do to correct.

I imagine that the system write this errors into a log file.

When I press CTRL+D the system ask me for root password and that's it.

Really - normally it prints information about what's wrong - including instruction what do to (i.e. run fsck).

on next reboot I will look more careful to see the error. Maybe I will fix it. I believe it's a fsck error...and in this case what command I should use?
 
Re: On each restart the PVE server requiere "Press CTRL+D to continue". What Ii can d

man fsck :)

typically something like "fsck.ext3 -p /dev/mapper/pve-data" could do (if it's your pve-data that has been hit)
otherweise the path could be /dev/pve/root

but the few lines on the screen before "press ctrl+d" should explain quite clearly what's wrong.

Anyway, I'm impressed that simply logging in and rebooting helps along in this case.

Hi,
another possibility is, that your hw-clock is wrong (e.g. 1 hour back). Ifn the filesystem time is in the future, the mounting fail.
