I'm running ocsfs2 1.2.7 on RHEL4u4 ppc on an IBM Openpower Box. I had to reformat my storage array and reload all my data over the weekend and started getting the below error in /var/log/messages. MC72001 kernel: (8997,0):ocfs2_read_locked_inode:376 ERROR: Invalid dinode #1028137861251086: signature = ??<92>&?^N<8b> I get this error over and over. Users can use all the data but I do not understand why I'm getting this error message. fsck.ocfs2 doesn't find any issue. Any ideas? Thanks Chris
Did you run fsck.ocfs2 with -f? It could be that a dentry is pointing to a bad inode#. If you cannot umount that volume, try running fsck.ocfs2 -fn. Ignore all errors other than one related to the error below. All others will be false positives. If it shows up, umount and run again. fsck.ocfs2 -fy. DIRENT_INODE_RANGE check should catch and fix this issue. Sunil Christopher Sheaves wrote:> I'm running ocsfs2 1.2.7 on RHEL4u4 ppc on an IBM Openpower Box.

This is nearly the same message I've been getting, and another user here on the mailing list as well, all near the same time. That's just plain odd. -- Michael S.
