John,
Files do not disappear randomly on a 3000. If this was a file or 2 and a new process was inplemented, I would say check that. I think you have a user problem. I would change manager.sys password and support password immediately!! Also, check all users for SM and AM capablility. If someone is deleting files on you, they have probably given themselves SM capablitiy to avoid detection. Also, check GOD if you have it on your system. They could have also created a copy of GOD with another name. Good Luck.

Subject: [HP3000-L] Running FSCHECK in a job

We are having some very strange problems with files just randomly disappearing with absolutely no reason that we can determine. It has been recommended that we run FSCHECK with the CHECKALL option to see what it shows for a possible explanation or to rule out some areas. The file structure is very large and we would like to run FSCHECK in a job since all users have to be off and this would have to run on a weekend night. But we have heard that there can be problems doing this, up to a system crash, but no further explanation. I've run FSCHECK with the SYNCACCOUNTING option in job mode for several years on another system with no problems at all. Does anyone know what problems there might be that are related to the CHECKALL or has anyone experienced problems.
TIA for nay advice pro and con.
