Repairing a Traditional Volume
Typically, you can't mount a volume if it has even minor damage.
Occasionally, a damaged volume mounts and causes errors in the process.
Use VREPAIR to correct volume problems or to remove name space entries
from File Allocation Tables (FATs) and Directory Entry Tables (DETs). For
instructions on using VREPAIR, see VREPAIR in the Utilities Reference.
NOTE: If you need to repair an NSS volume, see “Rebuilding NSS Storage Pools
and Volumes” on page 48.
You can run VREPAIR on a damaged volume while other volumes are
mounted. Following are typical instances when VREPAIR can help:
 A hardware failure either prevented a volume from mounting or caused a
disk read error.
NOTE: Although VREPAIR can't fix hardware problems, VREPAIR can sometimes
fix related volume damage.
 A power failure caused a corrupted volume.
