vxfs mount: /dev/vg005/exchdisk062 no such device

[parkerleung]

I have a filesystem listed in /etc/fstab. Unfortunately after the reboot this morning, I cannot the mount point. I tried to remount by the mount command but it failed with the above error. I can lvdisplay the LV and the status is available. Pls help.

/dev/vg005/exchdisk062 /ptms/exchdisk062 vxfs rw,suid,delaylog 0 2

# lvdisplay /dev/vg005/exchdisk062
--- Logical volumes ---
LV Name /dev/vg005/exchdisk062
VG Name /dev/vg005
LV Permission read/write
LV Status available/syncd
Mirror copies 0

The first thing to look it at, do the files actually exist?

# ls -l /dev/vg005/exchdisk062

[parkerleung]

# ls -l /dev/vg005/exchdisk062
brw-r----- 1 root sys 64 0x05000a Jul 5 09:23 /dev/vg005/exchdisk062

In syslog.log, I have the following messages
Nov 28 12:13:59 xhkahp57 vmunix: vxfs: mesg 016: vx_ilisterr - /dev/vg005/exchdi
sk062 (structural) file system error reading inode 65

Try doing a filesystem check:

# fsck -F vxfs /vg005/rexchdisk062

If it finishes without any error messages then try and mount it.

Thanks Michael

However since the online users are affected, the management has decided to remove and recreate the LV. File restore will be followed. The fsck result is

NO IFILES is found.
