Inconsistencies Checked by FSCK
When the mounted field does not correspond to a known state, FSCK reports its
hexadecimal value as follows:
The fileset is in Mount State = 0xvalue
For information about messages such as the following, see Appendix A, Messages:
*** SERIOUS 201 *** Broken Free List, Inode=5465
Inconsistencies Checked by FSCK
The FSCK utility checks for the inconsistencies listed in Table 5-2. The inconsistencies
are listed in the order in which FSCK checks them. The corresponding FSCK log file
messages are described in Appendix A, Messages.
0x6002 The fileset is mounted in BUFFERED LOG mode and is marked clean.
0x8001 The fileset is being recovered.
0x8002 The fileset is mounted in BUFFERED LOG mode.
0xA000 The fileset is mounted in BUFFERED NONE mode.
0xFFFF The fileset is mounted in BUFFERED NONE mode by an OSS name server
that is not running the current code version.

Inconsistency Type Explanation
Missing or
corrupt
superblock
Serious If the superblock (node #1) is missing from the PXINODE file,
the fileset is unusable. A new superblock must be constructed.
FSCK creates the new superblock; you do not need to do
anything.
Nonzero
mounted flag
Minor Each time a fileset is mounted for read/write access, its
mounted flag is set to a nonzero value. When the fileset is
successfully unmounted, the mounted flag is set to zero.
A nonzero mounted flag means that the fileset has not been
cleanly unmounted because one of the following is true:
•
The OSS name server on which the fileset was mounted
failed.
•
The OSS name server detected serious inconsistencies
within the catalog.
Although a nonzero mounted flag is a minor inconsistency, it is
corrected regardless of whether FSCK has been directed to
correct minor inconsistencies.
If only minor inconsistencies are discovered and only major
inconsistencies are being corrected, FSCK does not create a
