Hi everyone,
I have an IBM array box running RHE AS 4 with the kernel 2.6.9-42. This
box has been down for almost 2 weeks. I had to do a filesystem rebuild, and
then a filesystem repair. I could not finish the repair because it was
going on 3 days of repairing. I don't think this is unusual because the
box is a total
of 1.5 terabytes. Anyway, I've run all the hardware diagnostics and
come up with everything passing these tests. IBM wants me to run an
ibm.iso to
clarify that no hardware is bad, but I'm going to the RH summit
tomorrow, so I've got to get this thing up today. I have come to the
conclusioin, that I
will have to reinstall the os. I cannot get the box to boot, it tells
me everytime that the "filesystem is corrupt and needs to run a repair."
I then have to give it the root passwd and
it goes into the repair mode again. Does anybody have any advise
besides reinstalling or going thru another 3-4 days of repairing the
filesystem. Maybe
someone has seen this problem before and has a "quick" fix? Any
help/advice/opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Paula
