12.2.1.3 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>
setup: Volume information error
setup: fsck quit due to unrecoverable error!

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

The following example shows how to restore partition information on the "/dev/sfdsk/gfs01/rdsk/volume01" device.

For a single partition, perform the following operation:

# sfcadm -r -a /dev/sfdsk/gfs01/rdsk/volume01 <Enter>

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 /dev/sfdsk/gfs01/dsk/volume01 <Enter>
/dev/sfdsk/gfs01/dsk/volume01:
FSID special                                   size  Type  mount

# sfcadm -r /dev/sfdsk/gfs01/rdsk/volume01 <Enter>

In the result of sfcinfo(1M) executed, the partition displayed the first will be the representative partition of the file system. See sfcinfo(1M).
