This patch changes xfsdump to use the full 32-bit inode generation number. A change to part of the dump format (direnthdr_t) was required, so the dump format version has been bumped to 3. xfsdump also required changes to its inode-to-generation cache. This map is not persistent though, so no compatibility or version changes were required there.I suspect that this does fix the problem. Since the fix is in the dump, not just restore, I guess I'll just have to start with a fresh level 0 and see if the failure ever happens again upon restore.
That's right. If you need to recover files from the backup that has issues, try applying only your level 1 backup and select just the files that failed to restore. Bill _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
