Re: If you are running XFS and a 2.6.17(.x) kernel...



It results in corruption of multiple directories in your filesystem, after you perform the fix shown in the FAQ, it will move hundreds of thousands (potentially) of files/directories/sockets/etc to /lost+found, so back up your data before!

One way to fix: rsync your existing data elsewhere, follow the FAQ and then rsync the filesystem back and it will add the files that got moved to /lost+found.
