Hello Chuck, Wednesday, July 24, 2002, 8:06:15 PM, you textually orated:
C> Well, now I have this problem on my only ext3 filesystem. I am at a loss C> as to what direction to go.

C> There is way to much data to backup and try any risky operations as well C> as the fact that this data is in production 24x7. C> Any ideas??? Well, here are some ideas. But I can't say how far they will get you. 1. Check dmesg. See if there is anything funny going on there. Especially look for inode errors. There are ways to "fix" reiserfs, but they are not the same as ext2/3. An fsck in reiserfs will not do the same things the ext versions do. 2. Check here http://www.namesys.com/faq.html#nfs to see if this applies to you. 3. On the ext3 filesystem you can try using lsattr to check for the immutable flag (it will be an "i" on the left with the "-"s). If this is set you can not perform anything but reads to the files. man chattr for more info. <snip> >> I have a system with a 1TB file system that is NFS exported.
