Disk I/O error 5
I ran into I/O error (error 5) when copying files. Tried to copy the file in question to the same filesystem and to the different filesystem using cp, copy and tar - same problem, so looks like system could not read the source file.
The system SCO OSR 5.0.7 runs under VMWare and the storage is IBM SAN. Support already ran fsck from SCO and the IBM utility on SAN (have no details), both came clean.
What would gurus do in this situation?
The guest OS file was moved from the NAS to another storage for now, but I don't have a warm feeling about the situation.

Dear All,
I am working on AIX 5.2, and I have allocated 3072M disk space to /home filesystem. Now system has no free space at /home filesystem. But when I checked data on /home, I have only 900M data. Please if anybody can tell me about this difference and how this can be resolved.

NAME
mkfs.bfs - make an SCO bfs filesystem
SYNOPSIS
mkfs.bfs [options] device [block-count]
DESCRIPTION
mkfs.bfs creates an SCO bfs filesystem on a block device (usually a disk partition or a file accessed via the loop device).
The block-count parameter is the desired size of the filesystem, in blocks. If nothing is specified, the entire partition will be used.
OPTIONS
-N, --inodes number
Specify the desired number of inodes (at most 512). If nothing is specified, some default number in the range 48-512 is picked
depending on the size of the partition.
-V, --vname label
Specify the volume label. I have no idea if/where this is used.
-F, --fname name
Specify the filesystem name. I have no idea if/where this is used.
-v, --verbose
Explain what is being done.
-c This option is silently ignored.
-l This option is silently ignored.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
-V, --version
Output version information and exit. Option -V only works as --version when it is the only option.
EXIT CODES
The exit code returned by mkfs.bfs is 0 when all went well, and 1 when something went wrong.
SEE ALSO
mkfs(8).
AVAILABILITY
The mkfs.bfs command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
