Asg 120 a v7 cmd line repair

I'm logged in to the asg console and I am at the command line. This is a testing situation so I'm not concerned about data on the device.  It says that there is some directory corruption and I should repair the disk. What is the proper command to do that? I tried chkdsk /f but it didn't recognize it.

  • Very rare to get corruption on one of these installs --- I would suspect a bad disk...

    Anyhow... do this (have to be root):

    shutdown -F -r

    The volumes will need to be unmounted anyway, and this will reboot the unit, check the disks before mounting.  Case does matter for this command; using a lowercase -f will result in the system SKIPPING the checks instead of FORCING them.

  • Okay I did as you said. I had to put 'now' at the end of the command because it instructed me that it needed a time. It's rebooting now.
  • Now it is asking me run fsck manually.
  • I ran the same commands again and it says problem in HTREE directory mode 166463 over an over then stops and says Unexpected inconsistency run fsck manually without -a or -p options
  • I would just start over -- but I would run a hard disk testing tool first -- the HD mfg. normally has tools that will check a HD's health.
