Hi All, I have an Azure server which is running CentOS7.2. However, I am not so familiar with Azure platform, I added disk last time and maybe mounting problem, it makes my server not able to reboot normally. I can't reboot normally and can't even enter my server. At last, I removed the server and install everything again. I want to ask how can I avoid this? It is not possible for me to remove everything everytime. What can I do with Azure backup or make sure configuration is correct? Below are the previous error, please check what they mean: [[32m OK [0m] Started Update UTMP about System Runlevel Changes. [ 32.115889] type=1305 audit(1475768354.526:3): audit_pid=605 old=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:auditd_t:s0 res=1 [[32m OK [0m] Found device Virtual_Disk 1.

Hello, I have over 11 years experience as an Linux admin.. From the log it looks like issue with mounting params in fstab. To fix this without deleting and creating the system again is possible to run another VM machine and mount the current drive into it and fix the mounting params.. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions. Thank You

Hi, i currently work in a datacenter as a linux servers administrator, so i believe my skills are quite enough to solve your problem. any kind of linux work is my daily routine. I did same kind of projects before, please see my reviews to understand my knowledges level. As a member of "Preferred Freelancer" program, i can guarantee that your task will be complete in shortest time Dont spend time, there is no option to have a KVM access to azure, you lost all system settings except technical supports will help you. you need to remove uquote from fstab. As an option yes, can be reinstalled and hard disk can be mounted to new machine
