Unable to mount the filesystem in lunux !!!!

[HP-UX_Ali]

Hello Experts,

While mounting one of the file system is giving below error.

mount /dev/vg01/lvol2 /u03
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/vg01/lvol2,
or too many mounted file systems

The system was restored from the backup image and vg01 is recovered, where /u01 /u02 /u04 got mounted successfully except /u03.


ran e2fsck -pfb on /dev/vg01/lvol2 ( on different backup superbocks) but same error is appearing whle mounting...

Please suggest below fdisk output is attached..

- What's the name and version of your Linux distribution? (This tells a lot about available tools and may help identification of known bugs.)

- Is something else already mounted to /u03, or has /dev/vg01/lvol2 already been mounted to some other location?
(please examine the output of "cat /proc/mounts" and "cat /proc/partitions")

> ran e2fsck -pfb on /dev/vg01/lvol2 ( on different backup superbocks)

Well, was it successful or not?

The '-p' option allows only small errors to be corrected automatically: for bigger problems, it just displays a message and stops. Try running without the -p option.

Since the filesystem is on a LVM logical volume, the "fdisk -l" listing alone tells me nothing useful at all. The commands "lvs", "pvs" and/or "vgs" might provide some useful, compact listings.

Shalom Ali,

After you run a command you can check the return code.

command
rc=$?

If rc is zero the command worked. If it is anything else it failed.

I suspect your fsck failed.

Thanks all... as the FS is corrupted and could not recover. I have to recreate it..
