FileLog doesn't. The last entry just shows:

Mon Jan 30 15:06:08 2012 File Server started Mon Jan 30 15:06:08 2012

The SalvageLog shows salvage entries for all volumes on the partition
(including the one which gave an error):

01/30/2012 15:05:49 m2.bi.rde.2011.micu (1669173317) updated 01/03/2012 14:42

01/30/2012 15:05:52 SALVAGING OF PARTITION /vicepa COMPLETED

The error message I mentioned initially has now stopped, but the
server still doesn't appear to be working properly.

djscott@pc35:~$ fs checks
All servers are running.
djscott@pc35:~$ fs checkv
All volumeID/name mappings checked.
djscott@pc35:~$

The flushm didn't help. Still saying 'No such device'.

Thanks,
