fsck

[Steven Burgess]

We have had to run the following on one of our systems earlier this evening

fsck -o full /dev/vg01/rlvol4

initial error

vx_dataioerr - /dev/vg01/lvol4 file system file data read error

Now in the syslog
Nov 7 02:08:24 gb675_1 LVM[21169]: /usr/sbin/lvlnboot -v

is the above an issue or a general message

[Scott Van Kalken · Accepted solution]

it's a general message specifying that the lvlnboot command has been run.

lvlnboot(1M) lvlnboot(1M)

NAME
lvlnboot - prepare LVM logical volume to be root, boot, primary swap,
or dump volume

the -v option alone just prints out information only i.e. - current configuration.

[harry d brown jr]

lvlnboot -v Prints verbose messages. With no other arguments present, this option prints information on all Volume Groups.


Therefore it is just a general msg.

Hi,

'lvlnboot' returns the below information. Having this appear in your syslog indicates that a program has just run it like I have. The number in brackets is the process id number.

# lvlnboot -v
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/dsk/c1t6d0 (0/0/2/0.6.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0 (0/0/2/1.6.0) -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/dsk/c1t6d0
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0
Root: lvol3 on: /dev/dsk/c1t6d0
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0
Swap: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c1t6d0
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0
Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c1t6d0, 0

whenever lvlnboot is run, it is logged into the syslog. So, that message is a general message. It is not related to fsck...

However, the error that you saw after fsck is to be noted. I hope you got it fixed.
