Hello,

Just inherited an XFS-enabled system (RH7.1 Linux version 2.4.2-SGI_XFS_1.0smp). A few days ago the server locked up and we had to do a hard reboot. Everything rebooted just fine except for some weird things about some files. They reverted back to old versions ( a few days back). I do not know if this has something to do with disk allocation and writing (caching?). My question is how can I check what has caused this weird reversion to the old versions of our production scripts? Also, is there a way to recover data, backup was not enabled on prior to system crash, thru xfs utilties?

Thanks a lot,

Joy
