[OpenAFS] AFS fsck problems - strange

[Jeff Blaine]

We recently re-imaged a fileserver (Solaris 9).  For
every slice of our old /vicep data, we are getting
the following error at boot time.  Here's one example:

> # /usr/lib/fs/afs/fsck -o b=512272 /dev/dsk/c3t6006016012341600D86B14C
> 7E294DA11d0s0

> ----Open AFS (R) openafs 1.4.6 fsck----
> Alternate super block location: 0
> ** /dev/dsk/c3t6006016012341600D86B14C7E294DA11d0s0
> BAD SUPER BLOCK: VALUES IN SUPER BLOCK DISAGREE WITH THOSE IN FIRST ALTERNATE USE AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION;

No matter what superblock alternate is specified... same error.

The /usr/afs portion was selectively copied from another
fileserver of the same architecture after the host in question
was reimaged (no sysid, no logs, no fssync.sock, no salvage.lock).

The fun part is, the partitions get mounted just fine and
everything is peachy.  Lucky for us.

Has anyone seen anything like this before?  We'd certainly
like to get it straightened out sooner than later.
