Hi all,

I am seeking information about what this and other similar messages mean, and corrective action to take. At the time of the error message, the machine spontaneously rebooted (apparently without panic ) and came back with a corrupt /var filesystem (to  which fsck required manuall intervention to recover).

The machine is a dual Xeon ASUS NCCH-DL board with 4 GB of ram, running 6.0 STABLE Thu Dec 222 18:24:2005, and has otherwise been reliable. The machine was placed into test as a secondary mail server, seeded with dictionary-attack accounts and allowed to collect UCE and ratware at will, as a test for SpamAssassin and MIMEDefang. ( Also makes a goot test for a pf-spamd teergrube.)

 md2 is a 512mB memory disk mounted on /var/spool/MIMEDefang, to allow quick scanning with less hardware disk IO. The main hardware drive controller is a 3ware 4 port SATA controller in raid mirror mode.

Googling on this vfs_done()  seems to show various similar requests for information  related to other circumstances but no paresable responses. (I dont *think* md2 was ever *full*.)  I can read code.. but.. Geez, filesystem code... Echh. Clue-stick -> manpage welcome here. Thanks.
