013 WARNING: msgcnt x: mesg 013: V-2-13: vx_iposition - mount_point file system

inode inumber invalid inode list extent

• Description

For a Version 2 and above disk layout, the inode list is dynamically allocated. When

the kernel tries to read an inode, it must look up the location of the inode in the inode

list file. If the kernel finds a bad extent, the inode can’t be accessed. All of the inode

list extents are validated when the file system is mounted, so if the kernel finds a bad

extent, the integrity of the inode list is questionable. This is a very serious error.

The VX_FULLFSCK flag is set in the super-block and the file system is disabled.

•Action

Unmount the file system and use fsck to run a full structural check.

014 WARNING: msgcnt x: mesg 014: V-2-14: vx_iget - inode table overflow

• Description

All the system in-memory inodes are busy and an attempt was made to use a new

inode.

•Action

NOTE: The tunable parameter vx_ninode is used to set the value of vxfs_ninode.

Look at the processes that are running and determine which processes are using

inodes. If it appears there are runaway processes, they might be tying up the inodes.

If the system load appears normal, increase the vx_ninode parameter in the kernel

(See “Kernel Tunables” on page 37) .
