Cause
This can be caused by a potential inconsistency in the file system
Environment
Found in API Gateway 9.2 CR06 but can exist in any build as this is an OS issue.
Resolution
Execute fsck and reboot the server.
[[email protected] ~]# fsck /dev/mapper/vg00-lv_tmp -y
The output should reveal that this volume contains errors. If not then this is not the root cause.
