Subject: Filesystem corruption 1,800,000 inodes and counting
Date: Sun, 18 Jul 2004 10:06:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d6fc441b04071810063fcf493b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Sorry to double post.  The machine that is down processes most of my
email.  However,
this account works.

A machine froze after 30 days uptime.  After reboot, it fell out of
fsck with an unrecoverable
error.

I ran fsck -C -y /dev/md1.  At 73% it starting reporting

Unattached inode 250143
Connect to /lost+found? yes

Inode 1815609 ref count is 2, should be 1. Fix? yes

It has gone from 250143 to 1815610  doing this over the last 36 hours.

And so far as I know will do on doing this forever?

Linux 2.4.25 untainted. ext2 filesystem (no journaling).

Any advice on how I should proceed?
