Hi,
a cat /proc/partitions shows the two disks. They were direct connected to an scsi port. (Old ide 2 scsi Raids).
I disconnected tham a long time ago and never worried about the errors, as the system was up and running very smooth.
But now I connect other iscsi systems and the dmes and log is not that easy to monitor with all the unneded messages ...
Anny idea, how to remove that partitions with the redhat tools?

Just reread your post again.... Actually, "cat /proc/partitions", if the said partitions/disks are still being seen by kernel, you will need some sort of system scan to get rid of them, or a reboot. I have a SAN, and qlogic card as HBA, qlogic has a tool for scanning for non-existent partitions and remove them... http://filedownloads.qlogic.com/files/ms/56615/readme_dynamic_lun_22.html and with qlogic, I could have removed the non-existent LUNs via the option refresh: -r, --refresh To refresh, that is remove LUNs that are lost use the options "-r|--refresh". This will remove the LUNs which no more exist. How were these disks attached to your system?

Hi,
some time ago I removed some physical disks from a server and now I'm still getting dmesg messages like:
sd 0:2:2:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x00040001 end_request: I/O error, dev sdc, sector 0
And all lvm tools still grumbel about that disks too:
/dev/sdb: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler /dev/sdb: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 1746969493504: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler
How may I tell the lvm and the system, that it is ok that this disk do not exist any more?
If a software RAID has been removed, don't forget : mdadm --misc --zero-superblock /dev/sdX where sdX is every disk that was part of the RAID.
