But these were the only messages indicating a serious failure today.

Lars Schimmer meant a "vos syncvldb" could help, but "vos syncvldb faepsv05 a
-dryrun -localauth -verbose" seems to hang also. Maybe he is right and i have
to remove the VLDB first? I really do not like this method very much.

Thank god it's late here in europe, so there are no users breathing into my
neck.

Sorry no - I'll  readjust the limits - now the salvager ran again :)

Whats strange, there are ~600 user volumes on the disk, but only RO replicas
appear to have been checked in the salvager log.
