Are you running a recent version of jfsutils? Versions prior to 1.1.6 don't do much to verify the directory table. There was a big-endian related fix in 1.1.7. This won't explain what is causing the problem, but it may explain why fsck didn't complain. > Thanks, > > Alex > > On 7/29/05, Alex Deucher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > When copying large numbers of files, files start to dissappear, but > > they are not actually gone they just stop showing up. when you delete > > enough files from the directory, all of a sudden all of the remaining > > files show up. This is consistent with the log messages below. The directory table is what helps readdir keep track of the current position within the directory. > Also my kernel log is full of these: > > > > free_index: error reading directory table > > free_index: error reading directory table I haven't had any other reports like this, but I don't think there are a lot of jfs users on sparc64. I don't have much time to look at this right now, but will try to give it more attention next week.
