thank you Rowland for your answer.,
i understend what you mean regarding DC, there was just two dc.
the faulty DC is no more in our datacenter(disk dead)
so i have one DC that is corrupted, i have a backup, but only after 
corruption.
dbcheck is good, even with ncs option, 0 errors
any other advice to check ?
