Is that ok? Or > there is > a bug in xfs recovery? I actually had a similar error recently. My DB server crashed, I then brought it back up, and had the dba's start oracle. It so happened that the Database thought it was still at 1AM, but the db didn't crash until 9AM. So we had to recover from archive logs several hours before. If we'd not had them, it could've been a frightful situation. Problem is, I'm using xfs 1.1.
