I'm experiencing difficulty completing the restoration of an XFS
filesystem to an SGI client.

My environment: ADSM/6000 server Version 2, Release 1, Level 0.8/0.8
(recently upgraded from Level 0.6); SGI client Version 2, Release 1,
Level 0.3.

After a hard disk crash on an SGI node (running IRIX 6.2), we began a
restore of the affected filespace (approximately 4GB of data). Four
separate attempts to restore the filespace resulted in segmentation
faults. The peculiar part is that the core dump never occurs at the same
point during restore. The four restore sessions have made it 65MB,
177MB, 2.25GB, and 3.45GB into the restore process before the
segmentation fault.

I have no idea, at this point, what may be causing the segmentation
faults. Is this a known problem with XFS filesystems?
