Where are fsck results logged at boot time, after /forcefsck?view story

http://askubuntu.com – When working remotely I set a server to force an fsck at boot time with the "sudo touch /forcefsck" command and rebooted. After it restarted I checked in /var/log/fsck for the results of the disk check, but both checkfs and checkroot said "(Nothing has been logged yet.) So where is it saving the results? (I'll add that this was on an 11.10 server) (HowTos)

Performing yum update on an OpenVZ hostview story

http://serverfault.com – Kudos everyone My company runs a handful of OpenVZ servers (HN) and hosts all the server as containers on these HNs. We have done some pentest and found out we have to do update the kernel on the HNs to resolve a potential security issue. The servers have huge amounts of storage and are geographically scattered so having a redundant server for every single server is out of the question. (HowTos)

Huge amounts of "multiply-claimed blocks" during fsckview story

http://serverfault.com – The basic question: How long should fsck take to fix a 100GB (17 million block) file with multiply-claimed blocks? The long version of the question: After a UPS failure, I am faced with an Ubuntu 10.04 server which dropped into fsck on initial boot. (HowTos)

[SOLVED] Lost my partition table (or superblock) on my raid 1 arrayview story

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Gcool wrote:Try the following:# e2fsck -cc /dev/md127 (this is going to take a long time, so do it when you have the possibility to keep the box running for 2 days straight or so) # resize2fs /dev/md127 # fsck -f /dev/md127What most likely happened here is something getting messed up during the array creation, which has now led to some data being written to where the RAID superblock is stored.
