Hi All I just installed a 2 node ,10 r2 rac on centos Linux 4.6 My rac install was done by following Jeff Hunters document (excellent work!) http://www.idevelopment.info/ For storage I used openfiler with the iscsi protocol http://www.openfiler.com/ everything went perfect... to the letter, I gracefully shutdown the 2 nodes , then the openfiler appliance, when I went to start it back up, openfiler complaining about "Inconsistent filesystem structure " This system has been restarted several times previously with no issues So, I get on the openfiler server in rescue mode the partition is /dev/hdc4 id =8e LVM essentially, Im trying to fsck the mappings in /dev/mapper/mydevice this was created by running lvm pvscan lvm vgscan lvm lvchange -ay lvm lvscan ie fsck -nv /dev/mapper/mydevice /*Im getting "bad magic number in inode while looking up journal inode or slot 0" and encountered unrecoverable errors while replaying the journals and will not continue.*/ I have the ocfs2 tools installed on the openfiler server, and ocfs2 is called by fsck I really cant afford to reinstall - I need a way to fix the damaged filesystem This was an unbelievable amount of work to install and configure and its all dependent on correcting this filesystem. Im hoping from some information on how I can make the fix Please HELP! Bob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
