What gives? Most likely it's files that got deleted while xfsdump was running. xfsdump has a bad habit of issuing warnings for things that are not actually problematic. But you could also look for those inodes on the filesystem you're dumping; what are they? Are they still there, or were they transient files? If you quiesce the filesystem first, or dump from a snapshot, you should not see such errors. -Eric > I put a `sunc; sync` before the dump command and it seems to help, but it is random, so who knows. > > Is this a bug?
