That just means the system went down while someone had a file open in vi, so you have vi save files in /var/tmp/vi.recover/ and the system at that moment in the start up is generating email messages to the owners of the files saying "run vi -r". Solution: read your email! Run "vi -r" as each user that has files under /var/tmp/vi.recover/ to see what files where half-edited and then use "vi -r filename" on each, either saving the contents or throwing them away with :q!
