abuser3:/nsr save: SYSTEM error, I/O error

[cpeters1]

On 12/31/08 I started getting the errors below after years of running backups just fine. I have rebooted the machine doing the backups (abuser3) but the errors persist. Other components of the same backup succeed, so I know it is not a system wide problem. We are running a very old version of Networker, 5.1 I believe.

Anyone see this before????

I was able to "fix" it by deleting the /nsr/index/hostname/db directory and recreating it with nsrck -F. Seems to work now.
