So after a recent run of hammer show, I get the following:
HAMMER zone statistics
zone # blocks items used[B] used[%]

total 122760 16538838 1029442696368 99.9667
54 bad nodes
1895 bad elms
Does this output mean that I should be restoring the above disk from backup or something else is going on here?
