I've started to notice strange entries in my quota tables on the
one of my RAID-1 partitions on a sparc64 2.2.16-RAID box. Basically,
the following entries are appearing, more every few days:
[root@durden /root]# repquota /usr
Block limits File limits
User used soft hard grace used soft hard grace
root -- 593660 0 0 37291 0 0
news -- 92 0 0 2 0 0
1249 -- 1 0 0 0 0 0
1257 -- 0 0 0 1 0 0
1259 -- 1 0 0 0 0 0
1262 -- 0 0 0 1 0 0
1264 -- 1 0 0 0 0 0
1267 -- 0 0 0 1 0 0
1269 -- 1 0 0 0 0 0
There are not, and have never been users with these UIDs.
Creating a user with one of these UIDs does not result in a user with
an above quota entry. There are no files owned by any of these users,
according to find. My question is if this may be a sign of corruption in
the software RAID, or some other sort of file system anomaly. Has nayone
seen anything like this before?
Just to confirm, I am using a 2.2.16 kernel patched with
raid-2.2.16-A0, raidtools-0.90-6 on a sparc64 platform.
