some news:
my router+file server got stuck with a usb 2.5" hdd enclosure and I had to
hard reboot. when it got uo again, I got this:
fsync: giving up on dirty
0xc43ec678: tag devfs, type VCHR
usecount 1, writecount 0, refcount 678 mountedhere 0xc4388b00
flags ()
v_object 0xc14291f0 ref 0 pages 2700
lock type devfs: EXCL (count 1) by thread 0xc45e9220 (pid 1719)
dev mirror/mirror0
but afaik, the files are there. so I question, is it yet safe to use
gmirror for my files integrity sake ?
is there anything I may be doing wrong to cause this ? what can I help to
help fix this ?
thanks,
matheus
