Two days ago I returned from vacation and restarted my NanoNAS server.
Today I realized that a big chunk of data was missing: I can access the drive, but an entire large folder is invisible from XP. However, disk usage statistics suggest that the data are still present.

OS version: v2.01 06-2008

Filesystem state: "clean with errors"

The Syslog includes numerous entries like:

"- Aug 24 04:24:50 [6] EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,1)): ext3_get_inode_loc: unable to read inode block - inode=11337729, block=22675474"

The read-only filesystem check produces the following:

"e2fsck 1.27 (8-Mar-2002)
Warning! /dev/discs/disc0/part1 is mounted.
Warning: skipping journal recovery because doing a read-only filesystem check.
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Error reading block 142098 (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading indirect blocks of inode 65545. Ignore error? no

Error while iterating over blocks in inode 65545: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read
Segmentation fault"

"Check and repair filesystem" is unavailable (*).

How to recover my data?

Thanks,

Lee

How much memory is in the box and how large is the drive. If you are using a large drive with little memory in the PC a file system check will likely fail. Besides what dimension has said, very good advice, I would boot it from a live Linux CD or DVD and run an file system check on the offending drive. You may end up adding memory to the machine or moving the drive temporally to another machine with the requisite attributes to allow you to attempt a file system check and repair.

That said, if this works, get your data off of that drive and move it to a new drive or drives. You may also consider upgrading to the full blown version of NL2.x as it also supports a type of mirror scheme that will help to prevent this sort of issue in the future.
