Hallo Cluster and GFS Experts, I'm a new subscriber of this mailing list and appologise in the case my posting is offtopic. I'm looking for help concerning a corrupt gfs2 file system which could not be recovered by me by fsck.gfs2 (Ver. 3.0.9) due to to less less physical memory (4GB) eaven if increasing it by a additional swap space (now about 35GB). I would like to parse a image created of the lost fs (the first 6TB) with the code provided in the new gfs2-utils release. Due to this circumstance I hope to find in this mailing list some hints concerning an automated step by step recovery of lost data. Many Thanks in advance for your help Markus PS.: some infos concerning the damaged fs: ******************************************************* Markus Wolfgart DLR Oberpfaffenhofen German Remote Sensing Data Center . . . e-mail: markus.wolfgart@xxxxxx ********************************************************** gfs2_edit -p sb /dev/oa_vg_storage1/oa_lv_storage1 ========================================= Block #16 (0x10) of 3097745408 (0xB8A3D800) (superblock) Superblock: mh_magic 0x01161970(hex) mh_type 1 0x1 mh_format 100 0x64 sb_fs_format 1801 0x709 sb_multihost_format 1900 0x76c sb_bsize 4096 0x1000 sb_bsize_shift 12 0xc master dir: 2 0x2 addr: 51 0x33 root dir : 1 0x1 addr: 50 0x32 sb_lockproto fsck_dlm sb_locktable oa-dp:oa_gfs1 sb_uuid 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 The superblock has 2 directories 1.
