LOL. There's a "verifyarena" command? Silly me, I just had to s/checkarenas/verifyarena/! How do you guys know all these obscure command names (let alone what they do)? Let me guess... you wrote them? Plan 9 is really looking like a hacker's OS... for hackers, by hackers (of hacks??). (fast forward) Using some device mapper "magic", I was able to make the backed-up arena appear at the correct location in the arena file. The backed-up copy of the arena verifies OK. The live copy of the arena is reported to have an incorrect sum... but that's all it says. Is there a way to look into an arena a little deeper, to find the offending data? I'd like to debug this, and try to find the cause of this corruption, in order to avoid it in the future. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ |Smiley <[email protected]> PGP key ID: BC549F8B | |Fingerprint: 9329 DB4A 30F5 6EDA D2BA 3489 DAB7 555A BC54 9F8B| +---------------------------------------------------------------+
