WARNING: msgcnt x: mesg 056: V-2-56: vx_mapbad - mount_point
file system extent allocation unit state bitmap number number marked
bad
■ Description
If there is an I/O failure while writing a bitmap, the map is marked
bad. The kernel considers the maps to be invalid, so does not do
any more resource allocation from maps. This situation can cause
the file system to report “out of space" or “out of inode" error
messages even though df may report an adequate amount of free
space.
This error may also occur due to bitmap inconsistencies. If a bitmap
fails a consistency check, or blocks are freed that are already free
in the bitmap, the file system has been corrupted. This may have
occurred because a user or process wrote directly to the device or
used fsdb to change the file system.
The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set. If the VX_FULLFSCK flag cannot be
set, the file system is disabled.
■ Action
Check the console log for I/O errors. If the problem is a disk failure,
replace the disk. If the problem is not related to an I/O failure, find
out how the disk became corrupted. If no user or process was
writing to the device, report the problem to your customer support
organization. Unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full
structural check.

summary.
