Kee, Just curious, Why do you go to each card in the stack before compacting?
He indicated that he has a customer with a stack that has a corrupted card and they have continued to use that stack for a year or more. I found that I too had a stack with a corrupted card that was corrupted in all my backups also.
By going to each card I insure that they are all uncorrupted. If I can cycle all the way through the stack, then I am saving a stack that is worth saving. If the go to each card thing fails, I immediately know I have a problem and I deal with it rather than storing corrupted backups.
I know, it's lame and time consuming but my recovery time from a 5454 crash is essentially a couple of minutes whereas the first time it happened it was at least a day of painful rebuilding.
