Hi All,
Be merecefull, first time posting here.
Have got a server with Mac OS X 10.6.8 Server, which is profiding following services:
• Open Directory
• DNS
• AFP
Issues is with AFP more specifically with shares on Drobo box which is connected over FireWire. It serves as Share location and FileMaker server file database. Users reported issues with performance while accessing files and are unable to save some of the files onto it.
I performed Verify Disk form Disk Utility and it reported "Invalid sibling link. The volume Drobo was found corrupt and needs to be repaired." Repair Disk isn't fixing the issues and stopps performing repair after 20 min.
I had same issues on the same server while back, but back then we had Hive drive attached on FireWire and it had exactly same issues. We changed it to Drobo and restored files from backup.
Could please someone explain why these issues are occruing in first place as this starts to appear a regular problem, and what could be a way to avoid this in future.
We are planning to attempt disk repair from install media or Single User mode. Any better sollutions are wellcomed!
All bes,
Aigars.
