I've had this occur a number of years back with some files , you could see them with ls -l but couldn't open them or delete them , rebooting the box was of no value , TAC had recommended using fuser -f <filename>. I assume the -f is to denote a file , so you may need to use -d , since yours is a directory=20 -----Original Message----- From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of duc.do@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, November 12, 2007 3:29 PM To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [foxboro] /rem/r0 File system error? Hi list, I got an AW-51B box that went flaky on me and it's got me perplexed. Seems like /rem/r0 is corrupted per these responses: 17AW01# cd /rem 17AW01# ls -lad r* r0: Bad file number drwxrwxr-x 2 root staff 512 Jun 8 1999 r1 17AW01# rm -r r0 r0: Bad file number 17AW01# rm -r ./r0 ./r0: Bad file number 17AW01# mv ./r0 ./r00 mv: cannot access ./r0 There's no problem with /rem/r1: 17AW01# rm -r r1 17AW01# mkdir r1 17AW01# ls -ld r1 drwxr--r-- 2 root other 512 Nov 12 16:27 r1 I shut it down to single user and ran fsck. Nothing is flagged as wrong or corrupted (aside from the usual "FILE SYSTEM STATE IN SUPERBLOCK IS WRONG; FIX?" message). I've also rebooted it completely (-i6) without any improvment. Pertinent information: AW-51B running V6.2.1 (Solaris 2.5.1). Plenty of disk space: 17AW01# df -kt Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on /dev/md/dsk/d0 49855 15539 29336 35% / /dev/md/dsk/d4 822151 274368 465573 38% /usr /proc 0 0 0 0% /proc fd 0 0 0 0% /dev/fd /dev/md/dsk/d2 37927 13949 20188 41% /var swap 231976 84 231892 1% /tmp /dev/md/dsk/d5 2719925 692877 1755058 29% /opt Any idea?
