This sounds like one of two things:

1) You had two virtual machines who both had R/W access to the disk. Don't
do that, it will hurt (the disk contents will be destroyed). CMS minidisks
do not support multiple concurrent R/W access.

2) You had it R/W by one machine and R/O by another. If so, then you're OK
but the error occurred because the machine with the R/W access rewrote the
file, so the R/O copy was pointing to the wrong set of disk blocks. Then
when the R/O copy was read, it wound up with a block of data from some other
file and was thus confused by the contents.

If case (1) is true, then I highly recommend you copy all the files off the
disk to another one, reformat the disk (simplest), and copy them back.
Otherwise you don't know what dangers are lurking.
