[OpenAFS] vfsck taking a long time

[James E. Dobson]

Hi All,

I have an OpenAFS 1.2.8 server which is running on Solaris 9. After a 
power outage one of my partitions is requiring a vfsck. I have been 
running this for over 28 hours.

18934 root       87M   86M run     16    0  28:48:42  11% vfsck/1

This is a 135G partition nearly full (.....was 98%). I was able to mount 
ro earlier but couldn't get fs to run on it since salvager wanted to 
"clean" it. I have not had the best of luck with salvaging my volumes so 
this worries me. Is there anyway to use a tool such as fsdb to mark this 
partition clean and mount rw to recover the data or perhaps debug the 
AFS fsck? This is native inode fileserver. I have been running namei on 
all my other servers.

Here are the other 3 partitions on the server:

[jed@bacchus] ~ > df -k /vicep{a,c,d}
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/vx/dsk/afsdg/vicepa
                      141089011 83058986 56619135    60%    /vicepa
/dev/vx/dsk/afsdg/vicepc
                      141089011 108288754 31389367    78%    /vicepc
/dev/vx/dsk/afsdg/vicepd
                      141089011 68779070 70899051    50%    /vicepd


For those that use VxVM, my volume looks fine from the volume management 
tools:

[jed@bacchus] ~ > vxprint -ht vicepb
Disk group: afsdg

Any clues?

Thanks,
