013 WARNING: msgcnt x: mesg 013: V-2-13: vx_iposition - mount_point file
system inode inumber invalid inode list extent
• Description
For a Version 2 and above disk layout, the inode list is dynamically
allocated. When the kernel tries to read an inode, it must look up the
location of the inode in the inode list file. If the kernel finds a bad extent,
the inode can’t be accessed. All of the inode list extents are validated
when the file system is mounted, so if the kernel finds a bad extent, the
integrity of the inode list is questionable. This is a very serious error.
The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set in the super-block and the file system is
disabled.
• Action
Unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full structural check.
014 WARNING: msgcnt x: mesg 014: V-2-14: vx_iget - inode table overflow
• Description
All the system in-memory inodes are busy and an attempt was made to
use a new inode.
• Action
NOTE: The tunable parameter vx_ninode is used to set the value of
vxfs_ninode.
Look at the processes that are running and determine which processes
are using inodes. If it appears there are runaway processes, they might be
tying up the inodes. If the system load appears normal, increase the
vx_ninode parameter in the kernel (See “Kernel Tunables” on page 51) .
