The host system is a VMWARE ESX 4 Update 2 running on 2 HP DL460G1 Blade Systems. Unfortunately the Blade Enclosure (a C7000 From HP) start having malfunction so i have to power it off with blades still on. After the power loss the VMWARE came up but FreeBSD ask por FSCK on single user mode, so i run it fsck -y on all partitions. After FSCK freebsd wont came up with error of getty not found. i restart it in single use mode and mount /usr but no luck, all the data was gone and only got a lost+found directory with crazy files on it. I have restored the machine from a backup with minimum data loss only the fetchmail stuff but i want that some help me to know what happen if there is a bug or is there any way to recover the data. the other machines (Mostly Windows 2003/2008/2008R2) came up without problems. All the data is stored on an EMC Clarion SAN. Partitions: %cat /etc/fstab # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/ad0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1e /tmp ufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1f /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0s1d /var ufs rw 2 2 /dev/acd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 Thanks, i will provide anything info you need.
