Hi there, I am afraid I have the same problem - the EXT4 file system getting corrupted over time. I've built a NAS from Ubuntu 9.10 Server amd64. The system+temp is on an SSD drive, while the data is on a RAID6 array using an Adaptec 51645 card and 8 identical 1.5TB disks. I use use SSH/PUTTY to manage the box and Samba to access the data (fill using my Windows machine, play using XBMC on Linux mini), and I never reboot the machine unless there was an update installed.
uname -r: 2.6.31-19-server fstab: /dev/sdb1 /mnt/raid6 ext4 suid,dev,exec,nodelalloc 0 0 I never noticed anything wrong, but today I was looking for a file that was supposed to be there. The file was not there, but there were files from other directories(!). So, obviously there is something wrong. I removed the mount command from fstab, reboot, then I run: sudo fsck.ext4 -fyv /dev/sdb1 I got massive amounts of inode issues - I could not take a copy because the PUTTY buffer seems to be too small (text has been pushed off very quickly). Right now it says "Clone multiply-claimed blocks? yes" and it's hanging - I understand it takes quite a while. I wonder if I am a victim of the same corruption reported in this thread and whether I can fix it using fsck.ext4. I would not like to loose any data, because I just can't recover it from anywhere (these are HD family movies, pictures and such nowhere else to be found). I never planned on making backups because RAID6 offers good protection and using nodelalloc in the mount options should protect from power loss. Please advise. Thank you. ** Attachment added: "LSHW.TXT" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39897011/LSHW.TXT -- 2.6.28-11 causes massive data corruption on 64 bit installations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
