Can you either run gdb on the core file it left and grab a stack trace of where it crashed, or run metadump again from gdb so that it can capture the crash and get a stack trace that way? > Immediately before that, it printed: > > xfs_metadump: invalid block number 4358190/50414336 (1169892770398976) > in bmap extent 0 in symlink ino 98799839421 I don't think that would cause any problems - it just aborts processing the extent records in that block and moves on to the next valid one that is found.
