056 WARNING: msgcnt
x : vxfs: mesg 056: vx_mapbad - mount_point file system extent
allocation unit state bitmap number
number marked bad
• Description
If there is an I/O failure while writing a bitmap, the map is marked bad. The kernel
considers the maps to be invalid, so does not do any more resource allocation from maps.
This situation can cause the file system to report “out of space” or “out of inode” error
messages even though df may report an adequate amount of free space.
This error may also occur due to bitmap inconsistencies. If a bitmap fails a consistency
check, or blocks are freed that are already free in the bitmap, the file system has been
corrupted. This may have occurred because a user or process wrote directly to the device or
used fsdb to change the file system.
The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set. If the VX_FULLFSCK flag can’t be set, the file system is
disabled.
•Action
Check the console log for I/O errors. If the problem is a disk failure, replace the disk. If the
problem is not related to an I/O failure, find out how the disk became corrupted. If no user
or process was writing to the device, report the problem to your customer support
organization. Unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full structural check.

allocation unit summary number number marked bad
• Description

The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set. If the VX_FULLFSCK flag can’t be set, the file system is
disabled.
