Hi All

dmesg error: vxfs: mesg 021: vx_mountsetup - /dev/vgxp2/usr file system validation failure

Any idea?

Hi,

The error is quite strange and is never experienced by me before. Can you try to look for the disks in ioscan that belongs to this VG? Does any of them show NO_HW?

#strings /etc/lvmtab
to see the disks in this VG.

HTH,
Devender

Rashid,
this may help:
Message: 021
WARNING: msgcnt x: vxfs: mesg 021: vx_mountsetup - mount_point file system
validation failure

Explanation

When a VERITAS File System is mounted, the structure is read from disk.
If the file system is marked clean, the structure is correct and the
first block of the intent log is cleared. If there is any I/O problem
or the structure is inconsistent, the kernel sets the VX_FULLFSCK flag
and the mount fails. If the error isn't related to an I/O failure,
this may have occurred because a user or process has written directly
to the device or used fsdb to change the file system.

Action

Check the console log for I/O errors. If the problem is a disk failure,
replace the disk. If the problem is not related to an I/O failure, find
out how the disk became corrupted. If no user or process is writing to
the device, report the problem to your customer support organization.
In either case, unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full
structural check.

There seems to be a problem with file system - /dev/vgxp2/usr file . Try running fsck on and it and try mounting it later on.

During the course of troubleshooting, you may need to review the kernel ring buffer to view messages that appear as a result of the Linux the boot process. DMESG is a command that can be used to obtain relevant information from troubleshooting.

The dmesg command is used to write the kernel messages in Linux and other Unix-like operating systems to standard output (which by default is the display screen).
