Well the short answer is there is no way in this case to remove or rename the directory without running fsck. It appears that some hardware problems on one of the VA7410 controllers caused the problem. HP replaced the controller, we ran fsck and the bad directory disappeared. We have restored it from a backup and all appears to be well. There were some suggestions as to workarounds until we could run fsck, if anyone is interested I will forward

Subject: [HPADM] Corrput filesystem

Hi all,

I came in this morning to a corrupt directory in the filesystem that holds all of my ORACLE_HOMEs. The corruption is only affecting one of 3 ORACLE_HOME directories in the filesystem, so 3 of my 4 databases are up and running. My question is this: Is there any way to recover from this without unmounting the whole filesystem and running fsck? In order to unmount and run fsck, I would have to shut down the other 3 databases and all 1000 employees would be affected. Needless to say, I will encounter some resistance in doing that right now. I have tried mv 9.2.0 9.2.0.bad but get an error saying "mv: 9.2.0.bad: rename: no such device or address"

System is HP-UX 11.11 on an rp7410, disks are VA7410, filesystem is vxfs
