> It happens when a resource is localised on the disk, after localising that 
> disk has gone bad. NM keeps paths for localised resources in memory.  At the 
> time of resource request isResourcePresent(rsrc) will be called which calls 
> file.exists() on the localised path.
> In some cases when disk has gone bad, inodes are stilled cached and 
> file.exists() returns true. But at the time of reading, file will not open.
> Note: file.exists() actually calls stat64 natively which returns true because 
> it was able to find inode information from the OS.
> A proposal is to call file.list() on the parent path of the resource, which 
> will call open() natively. If the disk is good it should return an array of 
> paths with length at-least 1.
