similar to: does fsck.ext3 read data blocks?

Hi - We have an ext3 file system which is 3.5TB in size (on top of lvm). Free are 172049011 out of 854473728 4096K blocks, and 396540654 out of 427245568 inodes. This is using Scientific Linux 4.4 (a RHEL clone). The filesystem consists of multiple backups created with rsync using --link-dest, which hard links files which haven't been modified to the previous copy. There are several hundred

Greetings! Need your help fellow penguins! Strange behavior with fsck.ext3: how to remove a long orphaned inode list? After copying data over from one old RAID to another new RAID with rsync, the dump command would not complete because of filesystem errors on the new RAID. So I ran fsck.ext3 with the -y option and it would just run in an infinite loop restarting itself and then trying to correct

Hi, After our big ext3 file server crashes, I notice the fsck spends some time replaying the journals (about 5-10 mins for all volumes on the server in question). I guess it must do this should you want to mount the volumes as ext2. My question--is it (theoretically) possible to tell fsck only to replay half-finished and to knock out incomplete transactions from the journals, leaving the kernel

Hello, I have a 1.3TB ext3 filesystem that has been in service for about 3 months. About 6 days ago the Emulex fibrechannel controller logged a SCSI error and the filesystem changed to RO. It appears that the filesystem instantly changes to RO and prevents the journal from working, therefore invalidating the filesystem. The filesystem was unmounted and a remount was attempted. The mount failed

Hey all, Had a power failure and subsequent ext3 disk corruptions. Attempting to fix, but not working. Its a 120 gig IDE disk, 3 partitions. /boot, /, and swap. Basically can't boot up since the box can't get to the system files in /usr/ or anything. So I'm booting off of a FC2 disk 1 in recovery mode and trying to fix the filesystem with e2fsck The boot partition cleaned up

That's definitely good advice, but even with e2fsprogs 1.35, if e2fsck -f is

Hi, I' using Ubuntu 10.10/11.04 and on both of the systems help doesn't work unless I set options(help_type="html"). I hate to change context and help_type='html' distracts me. I want text based help inside console. Where should I look to fix this problem? -- Amol

Hi All, Trying to run fsck on a local linux raid partition gave the following. [root at ... /]# fsck.ext4 /dev/md0 e2fsck 1.41.12 (17-May-2010) /dev/md0 has unsupported feature(s): 64bit e2fsck: Get a newer version of e2fsck! Odd as the server is 64bit running latest kernel and using latest "e2fsprogs.x86_64". Any ideas awould be much appreciated. Cheers Steve k

I am looking to develop a custom tool tip component for a list of links. ...Which is kind of not that big a deal. But, and this seems to be the tricky part, I also want to be able to set/specify the interval threshold after which to display the tool tip. (and by nature of "tool tip", don''t display if the mouse moves out during that interval. etc) Any suggestions? Could

Hello everyone, I've just lost my whole EXT3 linux partition by what was probably a bug. For your reading pleasure, and in the hope there is enough information to fix this problem in the future, here the story of a violent ending: This tragic history starts actually on windows: MS Word had wiped out an important file on a floppy, and I got the task of retrieving what was possible. Using

Dear Asterisk Users, I have a Sipura 2000 device, and since last few days I have been searching for its latest firmware for upgrade. Googling tells me that Cisco has stopped the support for this device and I dont have definite idea on where would I be able to find the firmware to upgrade my device. Any help in regards to getting the firmware will be helpful. Regards, Amol -------------- next part

I'm trying to do an fsck on an ext3 partition but I'm seeing abysmally slow disk throughput; monitoring with "dstat" (like vmstat) shows ~1200-1500KB/s throughput to the disks. Even with 24hrs of fsck-ing I only get ~3% (still in pass1). The filesystem is ext3 running "e2fsck -C0 /dev/sda3" and about 3.7TB on an x86_64-based system with 4GB RAM. e2fsprogs is 1.41.9.

fsck (Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1) returns an exit code 127 on an ext3 file system when run from a shellscript started by cron. Here is the pertinent part of the script: ... fsck -p /dev/${BK_SLICE} 1>/dev/null 2>&1 STATUS=$? if [ ${STATUS} -ne "0" ] then echo "${MIR_PID}: file system check of /dev/${BK_SLICE} failed, status = ${STATUS}" >>${LOG}

Hi, I've downloaded and installed kernel-2.4.9 from rawhide in order to use ext3 support (I've also upgraded the necessary packages). I've used tune2fs to make the current ext2 partitions (incluind /) and changed fstab to reflect that. In order to test if everything is ok (this is a test machine) I've switched off with no shutdown. Except the / all other partitions accused

Hi, We've got some units in client's vehicles which are running Fedora core 1. We've can log into them over ssh remotely there is no console attached to them. I suspect one of them has some filesystem corruption, and I'd like to both force a fsck at next reboot (which I think I can do with shutdown -F) but I'd also like to make this fsck not require any human intervention.

Hi, I run several hundred servers that are used heavily (webhosting, etc.) all day long. Quite often we'll have a server that either needs a really long fsck (10 hours - 200 gig drive) or an fsck that evntually results in everything going to lost+found (pretty much a total loss). Would rebooting these servers monthly (or some other frequency) stop this? Is it correct to visualize this as

Box with Redhat 7.1 and kernel 2.4.20 has a hardware RAID (about 750 gigs data) attached via an Adaptec 29160 LP card... I began seeing numerous SCSI errors in my logs for our external hardware RAID and input/output errors on test attempts to copy files via cp. Rebooted and immediately saw the errors as the disk was initially accessed by the Adaptec driver. The RAID controller did not

Hi, I'm a newbie when it comes to R, and I'm trying to figure out how to use vectorization as opposed to for loops. In particular, how can I create a function that is applied on each element of a row, but can access previous elements relative to that element? My problem: I want to calculate something like x[i] = x[i] / x[i - 1] for each element of a vector x: ex. x <- data.frame(a
