I have a VM with an LVM. Occasionally when updates are performed, and the system has restarted it will go into a read-only state. This is an issue because I perform daily backups.
Unfortunately, for me, I have been assigned to fix this issue since our sysadmin is on leave.
I have a snapshot folder that backs up every day that is now read-only.
I run the following command:
[root@aetest /]# mount -o remount /snapshots
[root@aetest /]# mount -o remount /snapshots
After doing this nothing happens. no error, loading, or any indication it worked.
I then move over to the snapshot folder and type the following:
[root@aetest /]# touch mytest.dat
and
[root@aetest /]# touch mytest.dat
and I get this:
touch: cannot touch "mytest.dat": Read-only file system
touch: cannot touch "mytest.dat": Read-only file system
