Soloaris 8/ufsdump error
I'm running a process to tape that periodically gives an error similar to the following

DUMP: bread: dev_seek error: Error 0
DUMP: Warning - block 1126006886 is beyond the end of `/dev/rdsk/c2t5d0s6'

Note: I get multiple messages like this where the block number changes.

The device listed is my Raid 5 disk array and it has more than enough space available

Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available ev/dsk/c2t5d0s6 104936048 37613567 66273121

Use% Mounted on
37% /usr/local

Any thoughts as to what is causing this condition and how I might go about fixing it?

Hi,

The ufsdump should be used on a idle filesystem...
It seems that your /usr/local filesystem is corrupted, unmount /dev/rdsk/c2t5d0s6 and try to fsck it.

Thanks. I will do that and see if it takes care of the issue.
