FSCK Inconsistency and Error Messages
The FSCK utility produces a message in one of the following classes if it detects at least one
inconsistency or error:
DescriptionValue
These messages are issued when FSCK encounters an irrecoverable error. Such messages report
unexpected conditions that FSCK cannot manage.After issuing an ERROR message, FSCK always
terminates abnormally.
ERROR
These messages are issued when FSCK detects a minor inconsistency. A catalog integrity problem
exists.
MINOR
These messages are issued when FSCK detects a serious inconsistency. A catalog integrity problem
exists.
SERIOUS
These messages are issued when a recoverable error occurs or when FSCK takes an action (such as
purging an empty orphan ZYQ file) that is not reported as an inconsistency. WARNING messages
WARNING
report conditions that FSCK encounters or actions that FSCK takes that do not by themselves indicate
problems with the catalog.
To recover files for which no parent directory can be located, FSCK must create a new parent
directory. This directory is given the name lost+found, and its parent directory is the root
directory of the fileset.
When an inode is placed in /lost+found, it is given the name #inode-number; for example,
/lost+found/#3926.
The class of a message is given by the first word of the message (ERROR, MINOR, SERIOUS, or
WARNING). The inconsistency and error messages that FSCK produces are listed on the following
pages in order by message number.
