what's "full file system check required"

[kyliu]

Dear Sir,
I want to mount a volumn group.
I got error as follow....
-----------------------------------------------
# vgchange -a y /dev/vg01
Volume group "/dev/vg01" has been successfully changed.
# mount /dev/vg01/lvol2 /u02
vxfs mount: /dev/vg01/lvol2 is corrupted. needs checking
# fsck /dev/vg01/lvol2
fsck: /etc/default/fs is used for determining the file system type
log replay in progress
file system is not clean, full fsck required
full file system check required, exiting ...
----------------------------------------
what's "full file system check required, exiting "?
The /dev/vg01/lvol1 is working normal ,
and lvol1 is our production volumn.
Can I do only lvol2 for "full "?

Thank you very much

try:

fsck -o full /blabla

Hi,
fsck on vxfs simply checks the indent log. If your curruption is beyond this you need to run full fsck. (-o full).
See man page of fsck_vxfs

Hi kyliu,

You can do fsck full only for lvol2 as follow:
#fsck -F vxfs -o full /dev/vg01/lvol2

Looks like your filesystem having serious issues, do:

fsck -o full,nolog /dev/vg01/rlvol2

In they case you missed the answer, it's:

fsck -o full


:-)

[Florian Heigl (new acc)]

actually, in case of trouble,
it's rather

fsck -Fvxfs -o full,nolog /fs

because this is the only way a 'regular' fsck is going to take place.

You can use fsck with -py option to avoid user interaction to clear/clean.

# fsck -F vxfs -o full -py


Cheers,
