I had an error message displayed on the system console
        "BAD SYSTEM LOGICAL SECTOR"
        NUMBER 0X45560 ON LDEV 3 (IO-STATUS=FFDD0071)
        FILENAME OF BAD FILE O60325.OUT.HPSPOOL

        I created an SLT with @[log in to unmask] and attempted a full backup. The full backup
hung
        at 88% complete and would not continue. So I choose to shutdown and restart
        the system in an attempt to get rid of the file in question.

        The system came up and told me to run FSCHECK and un-lock the file to free
it up.

        See below.




        RUN FSCHECK.MPEXL.TELESUP


        fscheck: UNLOCKFILE FILENAME=O60325.OUT.HPSPOOL
        fscheck: EXIT

        Hint: Like MPE/iX's FINFO function?  You'll like our VEFINFO even more --
              lets you get # of file sectors, file in-use flag, etc. -- many more
              options than FINFO!

        My failure to purge the file tells me that the possibility of completing a
full
        backup this time will result in the same expectation. I am confident
alreaady
        that I will be rebuilding the system volume set because I am sure that my
LDEV
        3 is toast.

        My question is "how do I just restore the system volume set by itself"
since
        the LDEV 3 is on it and not part of my other volumes.



        Your help is much appreciated
