the /var partition on my ATA100 HDD has started to cause me some problems. The server experienced a "dirty" shutdown (power fail) and on reboot got quite a few fsck errors and the request to run fsck manualy. I did that and repaired the problems, now I am seeing various processes exiting with error code 11 for no apparent reason, also if I run fsck after 5-10 mins of uptime, I see errors on the var partition. seems that as soon as files are written or removed from the var partition, I then get errors. I can reboot to single user and run fsck to fix the errors but it would appear that I may be losing data each time I do that. softupdates is active on /var, but the symptoms remain even if I disable softupdates. I am at a loss as to what I need to do here, starting to wonder if I have to reinstall :-( any help would be appreciated, please reply to admin@aus.sh since I am not subscribed to this list Thanks in advance Craig. (happy to provide any other details which may be needed, just dont know how much or what to provide right now) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
