similar to: files disappear in ext3 filesystem

Hi folks -- My machine is a RHEL 3 with 2.4 kernel installed - with some large ext3 filesystems on drives connected internally ( >200G) Now, When this system crashed (for eg:- a CPU panic /hardware error ) - e2fsck on this filesystem seems to be taking a long time to return thereby adding to the overall downtime of this system. could there be any workarounds for my issue? say for

I just came back after being out for the evening. Apparently there was a power failure long enough to discharge the UPS completely on my Linux box. After powering back up, I received notice that the / filesystem needed "manual fsck"ing. I booted off CD and attempted to fsck. Unfortunately, everything I've tried has proved futile and I'm _desperate_ for some help. I've

Recently I've encountered a problem, and now I would preciate any help about being able to undelete files. My /var filestructured is mounted at /dev/hdc1 Part of my /etc/mtab looks like this: /dev/hdc1 /var ext3 rw 0 0 I'm using the e2fsprogs-1.23-2 package currently installed with Redhat 7.2 So, could anyone give me a hint of how things could be done to find deleted inodes? I've

I have been looking at integrating the e2image tool into my nightly backup routines for my systems, to improve the odds that I can get data back if something disastrous happens to my file system. I have a couple of questions about this, though, to work out if this is actually worth doing. Is e2image worth running if the file system is online and in use, under the 2.6 series kernels, as part of

Hi, i have two twofold e2image related questions: 1) The man page mentions "cp (1)"'s --sparse=always option. I wonder if there are sparse aware tools which a) display the "real" amount of disk space occupied by a sparse file b) compress sparse files (other than compressing very thightly several GiB of zeros) 2) "E2fsck, mke2fs, etc.

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

Hi, hoping that someone on this list can help me here is the Problem. After a crash it seems the journal could not be recovered. This is what mount gives: root@wuehlkiste:# mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb2 /mnt mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb2, or too many mounted file systems and this is the corresponding logfile-entry: Nov 27 11:16:13 wuehlkiste kernel: attempt to

Hi! I was testing 2.6.0-test5, but got lots of journal aborted errors. Then I Sysrq-s/u/b and wanted to boot 2.4.23-pre3 or 2.4.22, but ext3 error: cannot find root fs cannot mount because of unsupported optional feature (4) after trying to mount it with ext2 (rootfstype=ext2, not working) I rebooted again into 2.4.22, this time there was just severe fs corrpution, illegal blocks, inodes,

Hola a todos, de nuevo una pregunta referente a expresiones regulares. en este caso me estaba preguntando si se puede suministrar el valor de una variable a la exp. regular: ls(pattern=(''res_Slag_.*16_17_18'')) donde ''Slag'' es una variable de carácter (Slag=''UP'') por lo que de arriba tendria que devolver algo asi como:

I know there is no straightforward way to recover deleted files on an ext3 file system, but is there any way to recover from an accidental mke2fs? -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Raines email: raines@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu MGH/MIT/HMS Athinoula A.

Hello. We have, over the last few months, lost ext3 filesystems three times. The whole filesystem left unusable. nfs-server:~# mount /dev/rd/c0d1p1 /mnt -t ext3 mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/rd/c0d1p1, or too many mounted file systems (in dmesg) EXT3-fs: journal inode is deleted.

I have a bit of a problem with the machine I use at home for backups. The main partition the backups reside on is a 4 disk RAID-5, totaling around 240GB. This has had some sort of corruption inflicted on it, in the content of the (at least) one directory, where there are now corrupted directory entries. This happened after I added an additional SiS PCI IDE controller card to the machine and put

Hello: I've been using EXT3 for awhile with Slackware Linux. I setup a master drive and I've been cloning it to identical hard drives using a hardware cloning device. My new batch of hard drives are a different size, so I can't use the hardware cloner. Is there any way to move the drive to a new, larger drive short of re-installing everything from scratch to make a new master?

I installed CentOS on my home-server with 2 IDE 160GB MAXTOR HDD / RAID-1, LVM and ext3 partitions. Previous OS on this machine was FC2. I often "play" with LVM and, sometimes, have to extand or reduce some volumes size. I was surprised to see that resize2fs isn''t included anymore ! The replacing tool is ext2online but this one seems to only be able to grow a filesystem (not

Dear Mailinglist, this morning I had a very strange problem with my SuSE Groupware-Server SLOX 4.1. The webmail-access was very slow and even with thunderbird the access to my mailboxes was not okay. I rebooted the whole system, but the problem still was there. I thought, this may be a problem with cyrusd, but I realized, that the error was somewhere deeper in the system, maybe in the

Hi! I'm new to the list. I have a problem with mounting my home directory since my PC crashed. I hope that I can get some help on this list as I don't know much of ext3 myself.

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
