Hello,
(7.2 patched till 72-024) I just came across the moment to do my backups and testing the resulting two backup disks the result was the same for both: BAD SUPER BLOCK: VALUES IN SUPER BLOCK DISAGREE WITH THOSE IN LAST ALTERNATE RUN fsck_ffs MANUALLY After the third time I redid the full stack of backup I start to be suspicious about the source disk, you know... tar of my important files, etc. and running an fsck_ffs on the source disk the result was negative, it was all fine. So, I convinced myself that was the time to fix one of the disks and see the result... BAD SUPERBLOCK ... DO YOU WANT to FIND A NEW ALTERNATE? (or something alike) Fyn? y CLEAN? Fyn? F (after 5 min) etc. *** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups FREE BLK COUNT(S) WRONG IN SUPERBLK SALVAGE? yes SUMMARY INFORMATION BAD SALVAGE? yes BLK(S) MISSING IN BIT MAPS SALVAGE? yes CG 288: BAD MAGIC NUMBER CG 289: BAD MAGIC NUMBER CG 290: BAD MAGIC NUMBER CG 291: BAD MAGIC NUMBER CG 292: BAD MAGIC NUMBER CG 293: BAD MAGIC NUMBER etc. UPDATE STANDARD SUPERBLOCK? yes Can you help me to understand what happened to my disks? Thx, appreciated. -- Daniele Bonini
