Hi, I'm running a RAID 5, 6.0-RELEASE-p6 server, with multiple jails on it, more precisely 17 at the moment. It runs great, no problems at all until now, and even at that moment the server is fine.
I have just done an fsck, and the results frighten me: ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames I have 3 "UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY" errors, like: --------------------------- UNALLOCATED I=23364960 OWNER=www MODE=100644 SIZE=1084 MTIME=Oct 10 22:35 2006 FILE=/jails/j27/usr/home/www/data/tools/smarty/cache/%%08^081^081AA588%%mail.tpl UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY REMOVE? no --------------------------- ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts I have around 100 "UNREF FILE" errors, like: --------------------------- UNREF FILE I=21409205 OWNER=88 MODE=100600 SIZE=0 MTIME=Jun 5 08:55 2006 CLEAR? no UNREF FILE I=21409206 OWNER=88 MODE=100600 SIZE=0 MTIME=Jun 5 08:55 2006 CLEAR? no UNREF FILE I=21481298 OWNER=88 MODE=100600 SIZE=0 MTIME=Jun 7 12:16 2006 CLEAR? no --------------------------- ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups --------------------------- SUMMARY INFORMATION BAD SALVAGE? no BLK(S) MISSING IN BIT MAPS SALVAGE? no ALLOCATED FILE 23365029 MARKED FREE ALLOCATED FILE 23365042 MARKED FREE ALLOCATED FRAG 93343103 MARKED FREE ALLOCATED FRAGS 93360560-93360564 MARKED FREE --------------------------- As I said, I never had any problem with the server, no power interruption or whatever. I never "played" with tunefs. It uses the 6.0-RELEASE configuration. Now the questions: 1) Is that a serious problem? 2) What can be the cause of that? Faulty hardware, or software? I'm running an INTEL SRCU24L raid card, and I think I read posts mentioning problems with some iir driver version, under medium to high load. 3) How do I correct that? Booting single-mode, fsck -f? Is there a danger my whole filesystem gets broken? 4) Should I upgrade to 6.1 maybe? Thanks for reading! --------------- Philippe Lang Attik System
