FILESYS-X-305: Directory FAT chain has a hole.

Source:  FILESYS.NLM

Explanation:  A File Allocation Table (FAT) chain is a list of directory block locations. If the FAT chain skips a block, a hole appears in the chain. (A hole is a section that is not sequential.) A hole indicates that the location was never allocated. This message indicates that while a volume was being initialized, a directory volume structure initialization routine found that the file allocation table was not sequential. The FAT value did not match the directory length. The volume mount was aborted and all resources were returned.

Possible Cause:  This error probably indicates corruption.

Action:  Run VREPAIR and restart the system.

Warning: If the problem persists, make sure a volume backup exists. Delete the volume, re-create it, and restore the data from the backup.
