What is the step to fsck journal filesystem?

Please suggest me.

Hi,

# umount filesystem
# fsck -F vxfs -o full /dev/vgxx/rlvoly
You could add the -y option if you do not need to interact with the fsck process.

# man fsck_vxfs
for more info.

Regards,

Shalom,

Note also that a reboot will check the filesystem state. If it was not closed cleanly it will fsck it.

This check is not as complete as the check in the first post to your thread.

And, generally, you should not need to check a journ. filesystem...after all if you want to do it you should always unmont it, so the system can't be up and runnig (teorically).
Do do a boot, and if the "dirty bit" for the filesystem is set an autofsck will occour.


Regards.

Hi restrospec,

Before run fsck,you should unmount the FS,then you can proceed.
If you run fsck for /lvol3 in /vg02,

#umount /lvol3
#fsck -F vxfs -y -o full /dev/vg02/rmarketing
#mount /lvol3

here,
-F - FS type, -y - yes to all the questions, -o - flag....
