All, Re: SuSE 10.1 w/ 2.6.16 enhanced kernel from the distro. I had a non-graceful shutdown of a fileserver last night. Today, the /dev/mapper directory seems to have an extra entry: my-domain-config my-domain-home my-domain-data my-domain-data-real control The unexpected entry is the -data-real one. The -data entry seems to be corrupted because if I try to mount that I get "no superblock". OTOH -data-real can be mounted and has my data in it. Another issue is in /dev/<my-domain> I only have 2 links (config and home). If I manually create the missing data link and point it to -data-real I can mount my data filesystem, but after a reboot the link is missing once again. I'm running SuSE 10.1 which has a dynamically created /dev directory, so I have no idea where to look to get the missing link to be recreated properly So, I guess my first question is what's going on with -data vs -data-real? And should fixing that cause the dynamic /dev to properly start recreating my full set of links?
