Subject: How to recover data from an xfs partition
Date: Sat, 12 May 2012 19:28:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FAE9DBF.1090505@linuxsystems.it> (raw)

Hi,
I had a (software) problem with my xen server ended ruining my domU 
partitions. I already recovered all my ext4 partitions using fsck.ext4, 
but I can't recover the only xfs partition I have :(

When I try to mount I get:

root@firewall:~# mount -o loop,offset=$((97280*1024)) -t xfs 
/srv/xen/webserver.img /mnt
mount: Structure needs cleaning



While when trying to fsck I get:

root@firewall:~# xfs_check /dev/loop51
xfs_check: /dev/loop51 is not a valid XFS filesystem (unexpected SB 
magic number 0xeb639010)
xfs_check: size check failed
xfs_check: WARNING - filesystem uses v1 dirs,limited functionality provided.

xfs_repair:

Phase 1 - find and verify superblock...
bad primary superblock - bad magic number !!!

attempting to find secondary superblock...
................................................................................found 
candidate secondary superblock...
unable to verify superblock, continuing...
.............
[...]
....................................Sorry, could not find valid 
secondary superblock
Exiting now.


How can I restore my data? I cannot believe I had no problems restoring 
*15* ext4 partitions while I can't restore the only xfs partition I have :(

Hope you can help,
Niccolò
