Hello and help!
One of our university fileservers shows strange problems since last
friday. Syslog show the following messages:
attempt to access beyond end of device
dm-8: rw=0, want=8589934592, limit=262142
The strange thing: If I mount a disk-image of that volume via loop,
everything works fine!
The server was running Debian sarge with an unpatched 2.6.11.6 than, but
is running an 2.6.11.7 now and still shows the same problem.
EVMS is version 2.5.2-1 and DevMapper is version 1.01.00-4.

bsp2005 is an ext3-filesystem, from which a snapshot bsp2005_snap is
created. They both live in a lvm-region, which is based on a
Software-RAID1 using two partitions of two SCSI discs:
lvm/svs/bsp2005#origin#
lvm/svs/bsp2005
md/md0
sda4
sda
sdb4
sdb
Is something wrong with this setup or is it a known problem? Since the
same solution was working last year without problems, I'm very confused
about this strange error behaviour.
