I just went though something similar. When your fsck completes you may be left with things moved to your lost+found. If that happens, you can mount the file system using -t ldiskfs and run the ll_recover_lost_found_objs against the lost+found directory.

That would be the normal course of action. Actually, "e2fsck -fp" is slightly better than "e2fsck -fy", since it chooses "prudent" answers to the questions, instead of "yes" always, and aborts if there isn't a safe/obvious choice. > 'e2fsck -fn [dev]' gives: > Group descriptor 2560 checksum is invalid.

If this is the only problem, then no worries, but the checksums may also be invalid because there is other corruption, and this is only the first sign of trouble Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger Lustre Technical Lead Oracle Corporation Canada Inc. _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list Lustre-discuss@lists.lustre.org http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list Lustre-discuss@lists.lustre.org http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
