    Karl-WE two issues:

     

    1. Why did 3.10 refs refuse to mount the volume?

    There should be events in system event logs, and refs operational logs indicating the reason.

    2. Why didn't refsutil salvage work?

    Current inbox salvage is not yet compatible with 3.10 refs. We are working on it. If you are willing to test a private refsutil, please let us know.

Hi RajDas_FS ,

 

While I'm not suffering from the same problem indicated in this thread, I'm trying to use the dedup functionality and it's failing. I'm willing to test a private version of refsuti if there's still one available.

 

I understand and accept that it could cause all my data to disappear etc.

 

Regards,

Matthew
