I ran a xfs_metarestore to put original metadata on the cloned raid volume i had zeroed the log on before via xfs_repair -L (i figured none of the actual data was modified before as I am just working on metadata.. right?). > Then I ran a mount, checked a dir that I knew it was corrupted, unmount and try an xfs_repair (commands.txt attached for details) > I went home to sleep, but at morning I found out that kernel paniced due "out of memory and no killable process". > I ran repair without -P...

That's a little odd. It found a clean log this time: > XFS mounting filesystem dm-1 > Ending clean XFS mount for filesystem: dm-1 which is unexpected. So the memory consumption might be a bug but there's not enough info to go on here. > PS. Let me know if you wish reports like this one on list. worth reporting, but I'm not sure what we can do with it. Your storage is in pretty bad shape, and xfs_repair can't make something out of nothing. -Eric _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
