    Here is a error transcript http://dpaste.com/0ZPZSQ5

    bapp.srv.in:>pwd

    [/u02/opt/app/app200/logs/cores]
    bapp.srv.in:>ls -ltr | head
    ls: 0653-341 The file ./AppMenu does not exist.

    We do a fsck but it does not show any error.

    A unmount and remount of file system solves the issue but it also means that we have to stop the application resulting in production outage.

    What could be the cause of this issue?

    Have you checked the fscsi ou vscsi paths to see if you got some errors about PATH ERROR/RECOVERED? When it occurs and your system is not prepared for balance storage with Multipath or Storage network "clips" might cause this error.

    Take care of it.
