[Illumos-team] [OpenIndiana Distribution - Bug #276] (Resolved) error when attempting to eject DVD from drive

[illumos project]

Issue #276 has been updated by Ken Mays.

Due date set to 2011-09-14
Status changed from New to Resolved
Target version set to oi_151_stable
% Done changed from 0 to 100
Estimated time set to 1.00

This was resolved. I verified it on oi_151a using:
--> pfexec eject cdrom
cdrom /dev/dsk/... ejected (cdrom drive ejects CD/DVD)

if you are not root or have root privs:
---> eject cdrom
eject of cdrom * failed (mounted by another user process))

Then, reinserted CD/DVD... no warning messages and proper mounting and display of CD/DvD contents.

This is on oi_151a. Please reopen if you update and still have further issues.

After inserting a DVD into a drive, a warning message "cannot mount volume" is display; however the DVD is mounted and can be accessed. When attempting to unmount the same drive as a normal user via the command line the folllowing error is displayed (GUI only reports "Cannot umount volume").

bash-4.0$ eject cdrom
eject of cdrom /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 failed: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.113" (uid=101 pid=4664 comm="") interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Storage" member="Eject" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=458 comm=""))
bash-4.0$ pfexec eject cdrom
eject of cdrom /dev/dsk/c4t0d0s2 failed: Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.114" (uid=101 pid=4666 comm="") interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Storage" member="Eject" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="org.freedesktop.Hal" (uid=0 pid=458 comm=""))
bash-4.0$ 

The DVD can only be ejected by becoming root

root at fred:~#  eject cdrom
