V-2-8

Warning: msgcnt x: mesg 008: V-2-8: vx_direrr: function - mount_point file system dir inode dir_inumber dev/block device_ID/block dirent inode dirent_inumber error errno

 Description:

A directory operation failed in an unexpected manner. The mount point, inode, and block number identify the failing directory. If the inode is an immediate directory, the directory entries are stored in the inode, so no block number is reported. If the error is ENOENT or ENOTDIR, an inconsistency was detected in the directory block. This inconsistency could be a bad free count, a corrupted hash chain, or any similar directory structure error. If the error is EIO or ENXIO, an I/O failure occurred while reading or writing the disk block.

The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set in the super-block so that fsck will do a full structural check the next time it is run.

Recommended action:

Check the console log for I/O errors. If the problem was caused by a disk failure, replace the disk before the file system is mounted for write access. Unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full structural check.
