PANIC: Attempting to bring system down

Posted in 2005

Summary

Madiego's IDS 7.31.UD7 would not start, hitting an assert failure (page check error in bfput) during logical recovery, then PANIC. Scottishpoet saw corruption in test:euroadm and suggested restoring the last archive. Art Kagel pointed out the log said to run oncheck -cD 6291555. Scottishpoet noted an earlier problem must have caused the recovery. Unresolved.

looks like you have some corruption in test:euroadm Might be time to look out last night's archive and recover the system

It says: Run 'oncheck -cD 6291555' Did you try that? Art S. Kagel

looking at their log file that happened before logical recovery completed! looks like they had another problem before they got this one otherwise they wouldn't have had to perform logical recovery
