fsck returns "fsck: Invalid file system swap"

After a workstation crash I cannot mount one of the 2 disk filesystems. On it I created a swap area as 'primary swap area'.

The root filesystem is mounted. It asks me to run fsck on the second disk.
I executed:
fsck /dev/dsk/c0t4d0
it returned:
fsck: Invalid file system swap

The operating system is HpUx 10.20

Any suggestion?

Thank you in advance, Silvio

Re: fsck returns "fsck: Invalid file system swap"

hi,

it should be:

# fsck
and not the physical volume.

e.g.
# fsck -F vxfs /dev/vg00/rlvol2

regards.
