Subject: [9front] Full cwfs fscache
Date: Mon, 01 Jul 2024 20:58:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <A7EA8CDD-969C-4B78-ACE2-4538205F28B3@driusan.net> (raw)

I did something that filled up my fscache partition and it took me a couple of hours trying to figure out how to save my server.

I think it might be worth adding something to the troubleshooting section of the fqa like:

"Q: I filled up my cwfs cache!
A: You can restore your cache from the latest dump with the "recover" command. Boot from an iso and enter a shell with '!rc'. Run 'cwfs64x -c -f $fscachepath' and in the cwfs configuration shell run
   recover main
   end
"

The wording/instructions could probably be cleaned up by someone who knows it better than me, but the information is currently buried deep in fsconfig(8) which is not the first place you look and hard to access when your filesystem won't mount.
