Hi, i'm another question:

I'm a directory /usr/data on my server sco unix 5.0.5:

# du /usr/data

4386948 /usr/data

I'm tried to connect to ftp directory /usr/data to this server and:

PANIC: k_trap - Kernel mode trap type 0x0000000E
Cannot dump 262040 pages to dumpdev hd(1/41):space for only 16000 pages

PANIC: k_trap - Kernel mode trap type 0x0000000E

This is the standard panic response when Unix cannot access a critical piece of hardware for a process. In this case for some reason unix cannot access the /usr/data directory. When ever it trys, it fails and crases the system. Why it fails, I cannot even begin to tell you, with the limited information you gave.

Eclectic Wave, very very thanks for you response.

(My english is very poor)

I'm solution the problem with:

1) boot single mode
2) and run #fsck -ofull /dev/...

But, this not finally solution.

Thanks anything.

Hello,

When you start to see this sort of errors it means most likely that the hard drive is dying.
Some part of the disk has lost informations and sco could NOT recover it.

I would sugest you to relpace that drive.

another possibility is with a drive array with the write back cache enabled is the battery on the controler is dead and the controler lost/corrupted part of the info before comiting it to the drive.
