Your original post stated that you were seeing g_vfs_done errors on the console, and you were worried about what they implied. Then someone asked you "have you fsck'd the filesystem?", and you hadn't. Then you did fsck it, and as can be seen above, the filesystem had errors. When combined with your below comment, it's very difficult to figure out what's going on with your system over there, or what information you're not disclosing. Additionally, kris@ has stated that it looks like you may have a hard disk that's gone bad, and that's a strong possibility as well. SMART statistics of the drives in your RAID array would be useful. > I see these messages frequently if a FreeBSD machine unexpectedly reboots. Not only on this > system but also on others. I never worried about it. Are you saying the above errors experienced were caused by an unexpected crash or reboot? If so, the filesystem should have been automatically fsck'd shortly (60-120 seconds) after getting a "login:" prompt on the console. Is your filesystem UFS2 with softupdates enabled? If so, and the automatic fsck didn't happen, then that's something separate to look into -- it should happen automatically with softupdates enabled. More importantly, though, would be the explanation for why your system is crashing/rebooting/power-cycling. Data corruption can happen in those situations, especially the latter, but any form of non-clean shutdown should induce a fsck on UFS2+softupdate filesystems. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
