Hello 
A customer has a DB on a VM (VMWare) since a few month and is getting corrupted data. OE 10.2B08, Suse Linux Enterprise SP 02, XFS files system for data partition. We made a D/L binary, and before we could do that, we needed to rebuild indexes on meta schema (_File, _Index...). Short time later new errors showed up in DB log file. We set -DbCheck and -MemCheck, but we got more bad blocks. A look into Linux error protocols showed nothing. We see the following areas which may have a problem: - XFS as file system, although other end users have this - SAN - Memory/CPU (hardware is about 5 years old) We plan do do a text D/L to make sure everything is fresh. And we go to ext3 which was the formerly file system of the installation. Questions: - Any concerns about XFS? - Ever heard about damaged meta schema or damaged empty DB? - Any other idea? kind regards - Klaus Note: The error message from log file will follow soon.
