[SOLVED] ReiserFS check - Rebuild Tree

[kurianthayil]

Hi All,

We have a logical drive (raid 1+0) enabled with 210 GB and is formatted with ReiserFS. Recently, we got an error which is given below:
ReiserFS: cciss/c0d1p1: warning: vs-13060: reiserfs_update_sd: stat data of object [8210 8809 0x0 SD] (nlink == 1) not found (pos 1)
and we lost almost 75 GB of freespace.

So we did reiserfsck --check [device] and it suggested to use --rebuild-tree.

Doing reiserfsck --rebuild-tree [device] corrected the error and we regained the lost space. Now, since --rebuild-tree covers only data blocks (blocks only with data), we thought of checking the complete partition. Hence we used,

reiserfsck --rebuild-tree --scan-all-partition [device].

This started scanning and after PASS 2, it has given a message:

Its now 2.5 hours and there is no progress (no message in console). I am not in a position to kill this process, as killing reiserfsck during --rebuild-tree will make the device unmountable to prevent further data corruption.

I checked the ps aux|grep reiserfsck using a different console, then I came to know, that it is using a significant amount of CPU. I just wanted to make sure, that this is quite normal and its running in the background and is not in a state where it isn't working. Please do suggest some tips. Thanks in advance. Thank you.

Did you ever figure out what was going on here? I am experiencing this problem now myself.

Hi jnichol,

I got the issue fixed the next day. You just have to wait till the process gets completed. It may take some time. I regained the lost space and the system became useable from then.
