Question USB Mount - not listed in fdisk

I am running CentOS 6.6 [2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64]

We built a similar machine and the USB port was working fine but I do not have access to it at the moment.

See below the USB device is visible from dmesg and lsusb but does not show in fdisk -l so I am not able to mount it?

Tried two different USB sticks same result. Both formatted FAT32 and have had windows disk scanner run over them no problems.

Can any one please give me some pointers as to where I could look next?

Hi:

Try this thread-
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questi...-on-centos-6-4

If the usb still doesn't show in lsusb try running:
Code:
sudo yum install usbutils
This link may help too.
http://redhatenterpriselinux.blogspo...l#.Vco075SBuPs

Does the BIOS see it?

Thanks,

But if fdisk -l or dmesg does not report it how can I mound it?

As per my output I have installed usbutils and checked lsusb. The device shows up here?


Thanks

Looking at the output I see that you have /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.
The usb that is not showing up I'm thinking would be sdc.

To mount it try:
Code:
sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt
If that doesn't work than maybe the module for usb storage isn't loading?
Code:
modprobe usb-storage
A few months ago my CentOS box didn't see my usb devices either. But I had an error message and looking up that error helped me find a small library to install to help the usb devices to be recognized.

Are you getting any errors?

Did your kernel recently get upgraded?
If so you could fall back to the other kernel until I or other members help you find the solution.

This may help-

I looked in the Centos Forum and didn't find anything; I'm sorry.

lsusb does see it doesn't it. Toshiba?

This makes me wonder. /dev/sda1 "/mnt/usb1 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0"

Can we assume you have permissions needed to mount or automount a usb?

In the dmesg output following the lines you posted, is there anything that says "USB Mass Storage device detected"? It appears that the device is not being so recognized. Here's what I see from dmesg on CentOS 6.7 when I plug in a USB flash drive:
Code:

Thank you all for your comments. Please see below.

@rknichols : Sorry no dice.. DMESG stops at Configuration #1 chosen from 1....

Code:
usb 3-2: new high speed USB device number 5 using xhci_hcd
usb 3-2: New USB device found, idVendor=0930, idProduct=1400
usb 3-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 3-2: Product: TOSHIBA USB DRV
usb 3-2: Manufacturer: TOSHIBA
usb 3-2: SerialNumber: 070839B0CA1C4C62
usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
@Ztcoracat : I will try the kernel roll back and let you know if that works.

@jefro : Yes Toshiba is the memory stick. I am root, and have # setenforce Permissive

@Ztcoracat : I can not mount that device as it does not exist. But I did try.
Code:
[root ~]# ls /dev/sd*
/dev/sda  /dev/sdb
I guess this looks bad.
Code:
[root ~]# modprobe usb-storage
FATAL: Error running install command for usb_storage
I get the same two drives in /sys/block/sd* but no USB device.

When monitoring as I insert the device I get.
Code:
[root ~]# udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
KERNEL - the kernel uevent

KERNEL[1439371625.946975] add      /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-2 (us               b)
KERNEL[1439371625.947245] add      /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-2/3-2               :1.0 (usb)
UDEV  [1439371625.955765] add      /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-2 (us               b)
UDEV  [1439371625.965629] add      /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-2/3-2               :1.0 (usb)
But I already knew that worked because of the DMESG output from earlier.

As for the Kernel rollback.

Edited default=n where n is from the list of kernel options at the end of that file. I tried all three.

Noticed our other working server was still on 504.e16 so set default=2

Code:
# Nano /etc/grub.conf

title CentOS (2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_wik2-l$
        initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64.img
title CentOS (2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_wik2-$
        initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64.img
title CentOS 6 (2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_wik2-lv_ro$
        initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64.img
And it works.. fsidk now reports.

Code:
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdc1   *           2        8067     7561472    b  W95 FAT32
and I am able to mount the device and read the file system.

dmesg is strange because it shows remounting the mouse at the same time even though I did not touch that?

Yes, that is bad. Something about that kernel installation is broken. Does /lib/modules/2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko exist?

Yes.. But I think you mean does it exist in the broken kernel versions? So I checked all three.

Yes, I thought from your original post ("I am running CentOS 6.6 [2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64]") that 2.6.32-504.30.3.el6 was the broken version.

No matter. Perhaps "modprobe -v usb-storage" would give some additional clue about what caused the failure.

That command should work. Have you tried verifying that package with "rpm -V kernel-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6" (or whatever the actual broken version is)?

I'm going crazzy now it's not working in the old kernel.

@rknichols : sorry, I made a mistake when I first posted.

Code:
[root@ ~]# uname -r
2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64

Code:
[root@ ~]# modprobe -v usb-storage
install /bin/false
FATAL: Error running install command for usb_storage
rpm command returns this for each version.
Code:
[root@ ~]# rpm -V kernel-2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64
[root@ ~]# rpm -V kernel-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64
.......T.    /lib/modules/2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64/modules.softdep
[root@ ~]# rpm -V kernel-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64
[root@ ~]#

OK Thanks all for your assistance, but that was one wild goose chase.

I had also been running OpenSCAP auto remediation to profile stig-rhel6-server-upstream.

One fix is to disable loading of usb-storage ..

PieFace!


Quote:
Result for Disable Modprobe Loading of USB Storage Driver

Result: pass

Rule ID: kernel_module_usb-storage_disabled

Time: 2015-08-13 18:25

Severity: low

To prevent USB storage devices from being used, configure the kernel module loading system to prevent automatic loading of the USB storage driver. To configure the system to prevent the usb-storage kernel module from being loaded, add the following line to a file in the directory /etc/modprobe.d:

install usb-storage /bin/false
This will prevent the modprobe program from loading the usb-storage module, but will not prevent an administrator (or another program) from using the insmod program to load the module manually.
USB storage devices such as thumb drives can be used to introduce malicious software.

Security identifiers

CCE-27016-5
Remediation script

echo "install usb-storage /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/usb-storage.conf
