I just upgraded a blade server via rsync from another server. Rebuilt the initrd. It boots fine... except that it won't turn on the swap partition. Several times, I've made sure swap was off, then mkswap -L SWAP-sda3 /dev/sda3, but when I do swapon -L SWAP-sda3, it complains it can't find the device for the label.
Did you check the partition label after the mkswap? I just am wondering if the '-' in the middle is handled correctly...
Works on all our other servers. This is the first time I'm trying on a blade (and we have almost no blades).

wailing in different keys.
I nodded. It was just one damned thing after another.
