On a quite badly mangled filesystem, xfs_repair (v. 3.1.4) seems to never end. It has run for 16 hours with absolutely no disk activity. Usually xfs_repair takes much less than one hour on a similar (9 TB) filesystem. I know I should try the latest version. What else can be wrong? What should I try? Last lines of output of the still running xfs_repair where it has been stuck since yesterday night: entry "Panel-2333" at block 3 offset 2464 in directory inode 2190114192 references non-existent inode 60238299 clearing inode number in entry at offset 2464... entry "Panel-2316" at block 3 offset 2512 in directory inode 2190114192 references non-existent inode 60238300 clearing inode number in entry at offset 2512... entry "Panel-2309" at block 3 offset 2560 in directory inode 2190114192 references non-existent inode 60238301 clearing inode number in entry at offset 2560... entry "Panel-2292" at block 3 offset 2608 in directory inode 2190114192 references non-existent inode 60238302 clearing inode number in entry at offset 2608... entry "Panel-2290" at block 3 offset 2656 in directory inode 2190114192 references non-existent inode 60238303 clearing inode number in entry at offset 2656... bad attribute format 1 in inode 2190120814, resetting value - agno = 2 - agno = 3 - agno = 4 - agno = 5 - agno = 6 - agno = 7 - agno = 8 - agno = 9 - agno = 10 - agno = 11 - agno = 12 - agno = 13 - agno = 14 - agno = 15 - agno = 16 - agno = 17 - agno = 18 - agno = 19 - agno = 20 - agno = 21 - agno = 22 - agno = 23 - agno = 24 - agno = 25 - agno = 26 - agno = 27 - agno = 28 - agno = 29 - agno = 30 - agno = 31 Phase 5 - rebuild AG headers and trees... - reset superblock...
