Thanks to all that replied so fast. I can't believe through all the searching I did that this didn't show up. Maybe I'm just an idiot. Anyway, I was just forgetting to run newfs on the new disk... Thanks again to all that replied. -----Original Message----- From: sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org [mailto:sunmanagers-bounces@sunmanagers.org] On Behalf Of Alan Dietze Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 5:21 PM To: sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org Subject: bad magic number Gurus, Our server had a bad drive and I replaced it with a new one. It seems to see the drive fine. I formatted and labeled it, yet whenever I try to mount one of the partitions on the disk, it fails with the following error message: "/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s1: bad magic number" This is a Solaris 9 OS. I've searched all over the place, including the archives of your site, however, nothing has worked. If I try to run fsck on the disk, it fails stating: BAD SUPER BLOCK: MAGIC NUMBER WRONG USE AN ALTERNATE SUPER-BLOCK TO SUPPLY NEEDED INFORMATION; eg. fsck [-F ufs] -o b=# [special ...] where # is the alternate super block. SEE fsck_ufs(1M). I've ran fsck -F ufs -o b=# with just about every location the backup super-blocks are, to no avail. I hope this isn't a RTFM email, my apologies if it is, but any information given would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! - Alan _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagers _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Fri Feb 11 18:01:07 2005
