General :: Resize2fs Seems Stuck At Pass 3 (scanning Inode Table)?
Jun 16, 2011
I have a machine running Arch Linux (2010, I believe) with a 6TB RAID-5 array hooked up to a Highpoint RocketRaid 2320. I've been having issues with the RAID controller's drivers and the latest Linux kernels thanks to the driver not being open-source, and as a result I am migrating the system to Windows Server.Problem is that the 6TB disk originally was comprised only of an ext4 partition.I shrunk the partition down as much as I could, and added a NTFS partition in the empty space so I could start moving files. That went fine. Problem is that now I need to shrink the ext4 partition again, move files, shrink again, etc. The second run through resize2fs is taking way longer than the first pass.It seems to be getting stuck at pass 3:
[root@nar-shaddaa rc.d]# resize2fs -p /dev/sdb3 863000000
resize2fs 1.41.14 (22-Dec-2010)
Resizing the filesystem on /dev/sdb3 to 863000000 (4k) blocks.

I was using gparted from a live usb to resize an ext4 partition and it failed while running resize2fs. The error it gave was
Code:
resize2fs: The inode is from a bad block in the inode table while trying to resize /dev/sda5
please run 'e2fsck -fy /dev/sda5' to fix the filesystem after the aborted resize operation.

I'm currently in the process of remove a drive from an lvm. I am following this guide
[URL]
and to be honest I have also posted this question at [URL] but I have a fair amount of data at stake here and really need to make sure I'm acting safely. This is certainly not a place to button mash or guess.this is the 2nd drive that I am removing, the first one went off without a problem.However, I just received this error
Code:
resize2fs: Can't read next inode while trying to resize /dev/vg0/lvol0
and I'm not sure what it means or where to go from here. The entire output is
Code:
root@dude:/mnt# resize2fs -p /dev/vg0/lvol0 4466524456k
resize2fs 1.41.4 (27-Jan-2009)
Resizing the filesystem on /dev/vg0/lvol0 to 1116631114 (4k) blocks.

I needed to shrink a filesystem so I could take a drive out of a RAID5 array. I unmounted the fs, then ran e2fsck on it and it found 5.9% non contiguous files but no errors. Then I ran resize2fs -f /dev/whatever 1300G (initial size was 2500G, used space was at this time only 1136G). It started operating and after some hours I received a lot of messages on the output as mdadm started resync in the background. Now the resync is done but nothing moves. Here is the output I received in the terminal window where resize2fs was ran :
Code:
computer:/# e2fsck /dev/stold/storold
e2fsck 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)

I understand that it doesn't do nothing anymore, as it doesn't consume any CPU cycles anymore. What can I do now ? It's running near 24 hours now ! How can I try to escape from this situation without loosing all data ?

Anyone, I would like to ask if it was possible to change the entries of a file's inode table ?
For example
Code...
I was wondering if I can change the entries in this inode table's entries.
For example I want to change the "Modify" entry ? I want it to reflect to day 2009-05-19 for example.
Can i do it ?

I'm trying to use GParted from a liveusb to resize my ext4 Ubuntu partition, but it's been stuck on the "shrink file system...resize2fs" for two days straight. The progress bar is still going back and forth, and top shows a lot of CPU activity, but it won't move past this point. I know it's a bad idea to stop GParted while it's resizing, what I can do, maybe a way to check to see if it's actually busy resizing the partition?

I have installed Lucid 64bit and everything is working OK except for my printer / scanner.
I have a Canon Pixma MP520 and when I switched it on and plugged it in Lucid identified it and installed the necessary drivers.
I have tried printing and scanning (scanning using Simple Scan and Xsane) but I can't get any more than 600 dpi resolution (my printer / scanner is capable of 4200 resolution).I have tried changing the resolution in the scanning packages but the resolution stays the same.

I decided to take an old Gateway that I bought off a guy cheaply and turn it into a file and web server.I purchased copies of Debian 5.0.4 i386 disks (31 in all) on the advice of a friend, the disks weren't expensive, but now that Ive installed all the disks, I'm having a variety of errors

When I shut down I sometimes get some weird errors on screen, and it stops shutting down until I hard reset (hold power down). The errors are something like
Code:
drm:atom op_jump atomBios stuck
drm:atom execute table locked atombios stuck
Also I have my pc set to schedule shutdown (gnome schedule, with "sudo shutdown -h now")My windows side has always shutdown fine, So I don't know if its an incombatilibty with my pc/mobo and the linux kernel ? (half the time it shuts down fine)(?might be due to spin down hard drive option?, or standby settings?)(hibernate on windows has never worked for me)

Can we find the inode of a particular file using its inode number?
The reason is i want to know how many blocks are occupied by specific file.
if we consider block size of 1K.
if the file size is of 100 bytes. In such a case, when the file is
stored on disk, the file will occupy 100 bytes or 1K (since we have
choosen block size to be 1K) ?

I have a directory that contains some files (over a 1,000) that have a '' in the filename. There are also some good files that I need to keep. therefore I need a script to delete based on inode.
What I have thus far:
list="$(ls -il /opt/PC/log/*RPOUT*.xml)" #this gives me the list
# I need to get the inode of.
for i in $list
do
find . -inum $i -exec rm -i {} ;
echo "delete file" $i >> /home/me/tmp/del_inode.txt
done
echo 'completed'
I know this is not right ... what I know is is the 'find' is. I need to loop through the $list gleaning inodes to get all the files with '' delete. I'm not sure how. The $i gives me the whole line. I just want the first position. set $() does not seem to work ...

If you create a file on UNIX/linux with special chars, like touch "la*, you can't remove it with rm "la*. You have to use the inode number(you can if you add the before the name, I know, but you'd have to guess as a user that it was used in the file creation).
I checked the manpage for rm, but there's no metion of the inode number. Doing rm inodenumber doesn't work either.
What is the command for this?

I deleted some files on the command line and would like to learn if it's possible to recover them. It's not a terrible thing if they are gone, but I want to see what I can do. The server is configured as a hardware RAID5+1 (ext3, Debian Stable) and I *really* don't want to take a dd of the entire disk.
ls -id gets me the inode value of the directory(155655)
I'd like to create a disk image starting at that specific inode. Then there is the issue of picking an outer boundary of the disk image. I'm hoping there's a dd/ext3 genius out there to advise.

I am using Wind River Linux- 2.6.27.18-WR3.0bg_standard. The problem is whenever I execute "reboot, ls, cd" and many other commands the OS prompts me an error-
"end request: i/o error, dev sda, sector "(different sector each time)" and
EXT3-fs error (device sda1):ext3_get_inode_loc:unable to read inode block- inode-4088001, block-4097027
I also executed "dmesg", it also showed similar errors. Has the disk gone bad or the kernel is corrupted?

1st. I lost my usb drives. Im using Puppy Studio(Lucid, Full HDD install, latest ver) on a Toshiba Satellite 2805-S201... My 1st Linux treasure... Anyway... I was recording audio thru audacity. Shutdown. L8r started and inserted a Flash drive and the icon never showed even though I used it hours prior with no issues. The drives are working fine meaning I can access the data on other devices. Now the newb... I cant find the USB info anywhere. i followed System-Status & Configure-Hardware info-Devices-USB devices and theres nothing there. The optical drive & sda1 are registered but the flash drives are not. Does it sound like my 2 USB ports are dead? My mouse & keyboard dont register either!
2nd. B4 today reboot was the only command I knew (so sad...) but I learned dmesg and tried that and dmesg reads
Ext2-fs (sda1): error: ext2_Lookup: deleted inode referenced 83359
Basically I now want to move my music but I have no working usb ports. And Its been frustrating trying to figure out what the dmesg means when today is the 1st time I opened a terminal!

I have been using Linux close to 2 years now. One thing that always bewildered me is audio support in Linux. These days I login to windows only for listening to music. After reading various blogs, i decided to give it a try in Linux with Amarok. There again I am facing a problem.
while i try to scan for music files it is not finding any files.
what I did is as follows:
Quote:
Setting --> configure Amarok --> collection --> scan
I have tried with mp3 .wma format files. While I try to add these files individually, Amarok is able to play those.
I am using Amarok 2.3.2 with KDE 4.4.5. Fedora - 12 is my flavor.
Given below is the log obtained with amarok -debug option
Quote:
TagLib: MPEG::Header:arse() -- First byte did not match MPEG synch.
TagLib: MPEG::Header:arse() -- Invalid sample rate.
TagLib: A frame of unsupported or unknown type 'TSC' has been discarded
