ADVM-07698

orphan directory found for file identifier: string at disk offset: string

Cause

No parent directory entry was found for the indicated directory file.

  1. The directory file had no corresponding parent directory entry.
  2. The directory file had a parent directory entry, but there was a problem with corresponding parent directory file.

Action

If fsck with the -a switch is currently running, then no further action is needed. If fsck without the -a switch is running, then run fsck with the -a switch to resolve the problem. fsck will attempt to repair any directories that are in an inconsistent state first. Any directory file that does not have a valid parent directory entry following directory repairs will be moved to the 'lost+found' directory with all of its files.
