I see that running xfs_db is dangerous.  I have a system that I ran
xfs_repair (-n -f) on a live filesystem, and it was a Bad Thing(tm).  Is
that the case?  not a lot was going on, but I got some really nice call
traces, =(.  Then 990's on directory access, messages about corrupted
inodes.   I initiated a reboot, but not before saving the logs.


I am trying to get data off it on to the stand-by, but Am I Borked?
