開機磁區複寫至多個磁碟
原因:OpenPOWER Linux 開機過程所需的第一個開機磁區 PPC PReP Boot 無法安裝以 Software Raid 型式安裝,雖然在初次安裝系統時不會有任何影響,不過爾後第一顆磁碟因為發生故障,需要更換另一顆完全新的磁碟時,這樣雖然不會立即對系統產生影響,只要系統有做重啟,系統就會無法正常開機,原因是更換後的磁碟並沒有開機磁區。
解決方法就是:使第二顆磁碟也能做開機,步驟如本篇的教學。
TIP: PPC PReP Boot 這個專屬 IBM Power 機器的開機磁區其作用就像 x86 伺服器的 MBR。

初次安裝時
確認目前系統可正常運作且第一顆磁碟的磁區狀態如下:
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 960.2 GB, 960197124096 bytes, 1875385008 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk label type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x000e7231

/dev/sda1 * 2048 22527 10240 41 PPC PReP Boot
/dev/sda2 22528 2121727 1049600 fd Linux raid autodetect
/dev/sda3 2121728 1875384319 936631296 fd Linux raid autodetect
sda1 Power 開機磁區 (這個需要複寫到第二顆磁碟)
sda2 Linux 開機磁區 /boot (已做 Raid 1 )
sda3 LVM 磁區 (已做 Raid6)
複寫 Power 開機磁區至第二顆磁碟 /sdb1
dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb1 bs=512 conv=noerror,sync
/dev/sdb 磁區清單
# fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 960.2 GB, 960197124096 bytes, 1875385008 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

/dev/sdb3 2121728 1875384319 936631296 fd Linux raid autodetect
sdb 與 sda 的磁區幾乎一樣,主要原因是這兩顆磁碟都被規劃成可開機磁碟。
開機磁碟有更換時
不管是更換 sda 或 sdb 磁碟,更換後都需要手動建立開機磁區以及其他 raid 磁區。
以 /dev/sda 為例
fdisk /dev/sda
新增磁區
n > p > 1(default) > 2048(default) > 22527
n > p > 2 (default) > 22528 (default) > 2121727
n > p > 3 (default) > 2121728 (default) > 1875385007 (default)
設定磁區格式
t > 1 > 41 PPC PReP Boot
t > 2 > fd Linux raid
t > 3 > fd Linux raid
設定磁區#1 為開機磁區
a > 1
檢查磁區清單
p
寫入後離開
w
複寫開機磁區從 sdb 到 sda
dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/dev/sda1 bs=512 conv=noerror,sync
