while trying to run backups, codasrv crashed, yet again. now i'm
unable to bring it back, and i fear that data loss may be the result
of trying to run backups.
when i try to restart coda, it fails:
Assertion failed: size == s, file
"/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/coda-6.0.6/coda-src/resolution/recov_vollog.cc", line 386
while trying to do this:
05:54:10 Entering DCC(0x1000002)
05:54:15 DCC: Salvaging Logs for volume 0x1000002
i can skip the volume by putting it in /vice/vol/skipsalvage, but the
volume is essential, and i can't operate without it. so once codasrv
is back, i'm at a loss of what to do next. i tried to repair it with
norton, but there are no docs anywhere about how to use it to repair a
volume.
what should i do? i have no idea what this assertion means, and it
seems to be a show stopper.
i have come to the conclusion that backing up coda is impossible.
