Help - Input/Output error
I got an input/output error on a file when running du on a customer domain. Before this happened, the server crashed so I suspect the file is corrupted.
Do you think I need to run fsck to fix this? Is there any easy way to fix this without causing downtime to the server?
How long would it take to complete fsck on a server with 600 GB usable space?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Thanks Jeff!
Do you think it's better to run "shutdown -rF now" command to reboot the server and run fsck?
