subject: Fixing vol1 Changed To Sys. Volume Sys Object Id... Error Message [print this page] Are you receiving an error message while trying to access the records data saved in your volume? If the answer is 'Yes', then in most cases the volume objects Id is corrupt. A volume object Id is a component that uniquely identifies every file and directory saved on the volume. In most of these situations, the data saved in that particular volume becomes inaccessible. To access the data saved in the volumes, the user needs to opt for an up-to-date backup. But in case, the backup is unavailable or unreadable, then the user needs to search for an efficient third-party Novell Software.
To elaborate the above problem, consider a real-world example where a Novell user (with administrative rights) encounters the below error message while trying to view the volume directories using Network Administrator:
Property: Host Resource Name: Vol1 Changed to Sys. Volume Sys Object ID XXX to XXX
After the above error message pops up, the user is unable to view the volumes. Furthermore, the same error message pops up every time the user attempts to access the volumes.
Cause:
The fundamental reason for the occurrence of the above error message is corruption of volume object Id.
Resolution:
To resolve the above error message, you need to:
1.Erase all the volumes using NWAdmin.
2.Wait till all the objects in the volume are cleared.
3.Run 'DSRepair', then select 'Advanced Options', and then 'Check Volume Objects and Trustees'.
While the above steps resolve the error by recreating new volumes, the steps also make the files saved in the deleted volumes inaccessible. To access those deleted files, you will need to restore them from an updated backup. However, if the backup file is unavailable or corrupted, then you will need to use a commercial Novell Data Recoveryutility to recover your files.
Such Novell Recovery utilities scan the hard drive by employing intensive scanning techniques and recoup almost all kinds of files. These recovery tools are easy to install and allow even a novice user to perform recovery. The recovered data can be saved on default or new user-specified location.
Stellar Phoenix Novell Data Recovery is one of the best Novell Software that recovers lost files, without making any change in the original data. The read only software supports recovery from IDE, EIDE and SCSI and other hard drives. Compatible with Windows 7, Vista, XP, and 2000, the recovery tool also performs recovery when Vrepair is unable to repair damaged partitions.
