[jira] Updated: (TS-667) Ability to keep traffic server from
initializing the wrong disks when using RAW disk mode.

Leif Hedstrom updated TS-667:
-----------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.1.7
> Ability to keep traffic server from initializing the wrong disks when using RAW disk mode.
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-667
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-667
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Cache, Configuration
> Reporter: David Robinson
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features
> Fix For: 2.1.7
>
>
> When disk devices are configured in storage.config for RAW mode they are automatically initialized when traffic server first starts up. If disk device names change later due to adding/removing disks or kernel changes trafficserver will overwrite disks that the user may not want to be cache disks. This leads to data loss on the affected disks.
> Maybe a feature could be added similar to squid's -z where cache disks must be explicitly initialized before they can be used. Or a configuration variable that changes trafficserver's initialization behavior.
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: so, maybe have a few settings for the config
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 0 - Let it reinitialize cache as it likes
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 1 - Only initialize cache explicitly
> (6:49:06 PM) zwoop: 2 - Only initialize cache explicitly, and refuse to start up if we detect a cache disk with bad header
