In /mnt/backup there are six vaults; I've initialized five of them; salmo-data2/ won't initialize.
When I look at the long output of ls for that directory I see that five vaults have the number 4 immediately following the perms, but salmo-data2/ has the number 5: # ll total 40 drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Feb 4 09:12 lost+found/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 06:27 salmo-data1/ drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Feb 6 08:27 salmo-data2/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 08:27 salmo-home/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 10:28 salmo-opt/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 10:53 salmo-root/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 11:26 salmo-var/ I removed salmo-data2/ and created it again; this time the number is 3: # ll total 40 drwx------ 2 root root 16384 Feb 4 09:12 lost+found/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 06:27 salmo-data1/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 6 11:39 salmo-data2/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 08:27 salmo-home/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 10:28 salmo-opt/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 10:53 salmo-root/ drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb 6 11:26 salmo-var/ What does that column represent and how are numbers assigned? I didn't see anything about output in the ls man page. Could that difference in numbers be the reason I can't initialize it? And, how do I create it with the number 4 to match the others? Rich
