23.2.1 Action to be taken if fsck terminates abnormally

The following describes the action to be taken if fsck_sfcfs(1M) terminates abnormally.

23.2.1.1 Memory allocation request error

The following message is displayed if a request to allocate memory for the internal table for fsck_sfcfs(1M) fails.

Can't allocate memory for <xxxx>
        xxxx: name-of-internal-table-for-fsck dup table, bta dup table, etc.

Add a swap area.

23.2.1.2 File system configuration information acquisition failure

The following message is output if acquisition of the file system configuration information fails.

fsck: ERROR: cannot connect to sfcfrmd.

For details, see Section 16, "Management Partition," and restore.

23.2.1.3 File system partition configuration data error

This message indicates that the command terminated abnormally because a mismatch was found in the partition configuration data for the GFS Shared File System partitions.

Can't open <device-name>: <errno>
Can't get the data of partition <device-name>
setup: Volume information error
setup: fsck quit due to unrecoverable error!

Use sfcadm(1M) to recover the partition information.

For a single partition, perform the following operation:

# sfcadm -r -a <device-name>

For a multi-partition configuration, use sfcinfo(1M) to check the partitions and then use sfcadm(1M) to perform recovery using the representative partition.

# sfcinfo <device-name>
# sfcadm -r <partition-used-for-recovery device-name>

23.2.1.4 Node addition not performed

The following message is displayed if a node cannot be added.

No node volume entry for localhost, file system access forbidden!

Use sfcnode(1M) to add the node.

23.2.1.5 Irreparable file system destruction

The following message indicates that the file system is irreparable because of the GFS Shared File System data has been destroyed.

No Meta volume information available!
No Log volume information available!
Only found <num> data volume(s), total <num> in superblock!
The data volume <device-name> is not found!
setup_data: fs_dsize < sum(dvol->sdata)!

The file system cannot be repaired. If a backup of the file system is available, recover the file system from the backup.

23.2.1.6 The amount of work disks is too small

The following message indicates that the amount of work disks for fsck is too small.

fsck workarea <size to add> bytes size short. need <required total size> bytes.

Please specify larger work disks or additional work disks as the amount of work disks for fsck is larger than insufficient size by size to add and larger than required total size, and then re-execute the fsck command.
