Hello. I have a fs (metadump of it http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/p2/x1/web2-home.metadump.gz) that xfs_repair 3.2.0 is unable to fix properly. Running xfs_repair few times shows the same errors repeating: http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/p2/x1/repair2.txt http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/p2/x1/repair3.txt http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/p2/x1/repair4.txt http://ixion.pld-linux.org/~arekm/p2/x1/repair5.txt (repair1.txt also exists - it was initial, very big/long repair) Note that fs mounts fine (and was mounting fine before and after repair) but xfs_repair indicates that not everything got fixed. Unfortunately there looks to be a problem with metadump image. xfs_repair is able to finish fixing on a restored image but is not able (see repairX.txt) above on real devices. Huh? Examples of problems repeating each time xfs_repair is run: 1) reset bad sb for ag 5 non-null group quota inode field in superblock 7 2) correcting nblocks for inode 965195858, was 19 - counted 20 correcting nextents for inode 965195858, was 16 - counted 17 3) clearing some entries; moving to lost+found (the same files) 4) Phase 7 - verify and correct link counts...
