Any suggestions? If you suspect a problem with repair, you can try: # umount /dev/sda # xfs_metadump -o /dev/sda - | xfs_mdrestore - filesystem.img # xfs_repair filesystem.img # xfs_repair filesystem.img The image shouldn't take too much space, but 12T might take a little while to dump. If repair doesn't fix everything the first time please let us know. > I am running CentOS 6.2 (=RHEL 6.2) with kernel > 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64 (most recent) and all OS updates installed. please make sure that you aren't running the old kmod-xfs (or was it xfs-kmod?) rpm. -Eric > Controller Firmware is the most recent (18948), driver version is 1.1-5. > HDDs are 2x WD2001FASS, 10x WD2002FAEX. > > Thanks in advance, > Chris > _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
