I am not able to communicate with nebka. It was functional at 7:21 (confirmation mail sent to an author), and I am trying since 7:55. Any idea of something launched in between that could have brought a panic? Christian Zimmermann FIGUGEGL!

Any idea of something launched in between that could have brought a panic?
Yes, but it's the idea you don't want to hear. Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel RePEc:per:1965-06-05:thomas_krichel phone: +7 383 330 6813 skype: thomaskrichel

And why would this idea happen at the very start of a week-end when no one is on campus to push a button?

It can happen any time and will get worse all the time. Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel RePEc:per:1965-06-05:thomas_krichel phone: +7 383 330 6813 skype: thomaskrichel

The result is still that I have to go there and see what is going on. Please make sure that you do not have other tasks on other machines queued to rsync or whatever with nebka for a while. Interestingly, the rsync we did on Thursday from one disk to the other went fine.

There is nothing rsyncing from nebka, afaik.

I already wrote this is because of the e2fsck -c -y. The -c will perform a badblock san and mark all bad blocks as bad so the O/S does not go there. If you do a new scan now, you will find additional bad blocks, the o/s went there and tripped over them. I will not repeat this lecture again.
