We have Symantec Web Gateway 5.0 Virtual appliance running for a few weeks now and this morning traffic users began compaining about the internet not working. SWG is currently setup in proxy mode and when I checked the console via the VMWare vSphere client there were errors and the web interface would not respond. Upon restart of SWG we receive a failure during the boot process.

 

unexpected inconsistency: run fsck Manually

An error occured during the file system check

Give root password maintenance

 

Can someone tell what this password is?

Well that's a great advantage of running virtual, certainly easy to build a new appliance and get it back online quickly. :)
