Hello,
Original Question

Anyway. -- The server was stuck and was trying to come up. I don't remember
where it is stuck but I rebooted and the server did come up. I noticed that
the raid set was in critical condition. Hard Drive #1 was bad or the orange
light was on.

I replaced the hard drive and then went to get some of the other PC's working.  
When I was in the back of the plant, the computer room lost power again. The
raid set was in the midst of rebuilding.

I rebooted again with the old hard drive then started the rebuild again.

Now I have files on the raid set that I can't access. I do a ls -l and it says
(not found see the example below)

# cd /fb/common
# ls -l uvw013*
uvw013_uv025.prt not found
uvw013_uv051.prt not found
-rw-rw-rw-   1 ryan     system    647896 May  3 15:39 uvw013_uv025.prt1
-rw-rw-rw-   1 ryan     system    694112 May  9 11:01 uvw013_uv025.prt10


Is there something I can do so that I can verify that these files are there or
not?

I have tried to blow away the uvw013_uv025.prt with a -f but it would not do
it. I have tried to restore the file from a backup but still haveing
problems.


Anyone have any ideas??


Thanks to Dr. Blinn who reminded me to use advFS verify and also Nikola
Milutinovic. and Shaun Racine

There might be a salvage utility but probrably not for 4.0g

I got it corrected but lost some files that I had to restore from tape.

Thanks Everybody
