Disk Failure: Inode xxxx has compression flag set on filesystem...


Hello everyone,

I'm really feeling in over my head with this one, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

This server was running fine (fresh install of CentOS release 6.7 on new hardware). Has been used very minimally -only rebooted approx 12 times or so.

This evening I rebooted and I'm now getting these errors. Any suggestions? Has anyone seen this before or now how to fix it?

Once I choose to continue (Control-D) I then get this:

This is how the drive(s) were configured:

Thank you in advance for viewing and for any feedback/suggestions.

Ed

Try the other option "Give root password for maintenance" instead of pressing Ctrl-D and then run fsck manually.

Thanks for the reply. This is not happening on two servers in the cluster. On one of the servers I did go through the process you mentioned, and this is the end result. It CentOS does not boot properly and as you can see the lsblk result shows missing mountpoints.

The 3 filesystems that are referenced by uuid were missing from the server because those are hot swapable drives that I pulled them out temporarily in an attempt to remove them from the equation. I just put them back in and the reboot did get a little further, but seems to have stopped (hangs) at the CentOS splash screen.

Looks to me like that server node has had the main drive fail???

Again, all suggestions appreciated.

Ed

The udisks-etc error makes me wonder if there is something wrong with the disk or the connection of that disk. Once you can boot again, I would check its health, look for other messages in the message buffer and, most importantly, ensure that a good backup exists.

Also, google for "udisks-probe-ata-smart" and see if any of the cases reported match yours.

I'm kind of thinking the same thing...

Side remark: When you remove them physically, you also have to remove them from fstab to avoid such errors.
