Have you told it to reattach orphan files during salvage?
No, I hadn't. I didn't realize that "bos salvage" didn't complain directly but I needed to
do "bos getlog" to see it.  But Derrick corrected me :-)

You may have salvaging errors. I think there was a bug in the salvager that was fixed in 1.4.8.
Any hints?  The fileserver runs 1.4.5 (on RHEL4).  Reading the RELNOTES for the 
later releases
shows nothing about a fix for this problem.

Before you run the salvager across the volume, have a look at the file tree on 
/vicep*.
If your volume number is 4711:

$ /afs/stacken.kth.se/home/haba/bin/scripts/volid.pl  4711
    4711:    /vicep?/AFSIDat/b=/b7=

that is your tree. How big is that? If you make a tar of that and the
V04711 file, you have everything to start over if things go wrong.
Don't forget the -p when unpacking the tar, there _is_ info that
matters in these bits.

Harald.
