[Ocfs2-users] Unable to fix corrupt directories with fsck.ocfs2

[Paul Taylor]

Hi

errors like the one listed below have been coming through in our logs on 
a daily basis. We tried to run fsck.ocfs2 over the file system bet it 
thinks that it is clean. We are wondering if there is another tool 
available or process to follow to resolve the corruption.

OS: Linux lp-bbprd1-rh4v 2.6.9-78.0.22.ELsmp
ocfs2.1.2.9-1
