Hello Managers,
Got an issue that HP has been trying to figure out for some time
now. Thought maybe I'd give you guys a shot at it.
Problem=
Filesystem has issue with files not showing the correct size.
there are only a few oracle .dbf files on the file system and when I
preform an ls -l on the directory:
# pwd
/data5/u002/oradata/prod
# ls -l
total 205553
-rw-r----- 1 oracle system 209723392 Mar 9 12:46 TEMP01.dbf
-rw-r----- 1 oracle system 209723392 Mar 5 10:46 TEMP03.dbf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 69 Feb 23 08:09 test.script
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 14226971 Mar 9 10:19 test.test
the file sizes added up don't equal the "total" that ls is reporting for
the total size of the files in the current directory. a few weeks ago when
the problem was found I noticed that there was a .dbf file that was
growing in size yet the ls -l size for the file was not reporting any
change. the date was being updated for the file but the size was not
reporting any change. now don't get this confused with the df issue
showing the quota info... df, showfdmn, and vfd all show the correct info
for the file system/file domain. HP first had be shutdown my entire
cluster. just by chance we had a power outage at the same time as I was
shutting down the cluster and our UPS ran out of juice so the entire
cluster/memory channels/san was powerless to the point of the write back
cache batteries being drained. this showed no change in the file system
issue so HP had me run verify witch showed not issues then a fixfdmn witch
showed some messages:
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880000 | Modified log page 0
so the log is marked as empty.
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880016 | Modified log page 1
so the log is marked as empty.
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880032 | Modified log page 2
so the log is marked as empty.
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880048 | Modified log page 3
so the log is marked as empty.
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880064 | Modified log page 4
so the log is marked as empty.
21:18:26 | FIXED | LOG | /dev/disk/dsk83c:56880080 | Modified log page 5
so the log is marked as empty.
this message repeats it's self in the fixfdmn log file up to page 511. So
HP then had me remove and recreate the file domain. after that fixfdmn
reports the same message. after talking with 4 people from HP I was told
not to worry about this message if it appears after the file domain was
recreated. Well a week later (Now) I have the problem still.. Not sure
what else to do on this one. any help would be grateful..

Tru64 5.1 / TruCluster 5.1 - ADVFS file system
