The patches changed the situation. Postmark now runs without any errors, gfs_fsck still has some problems. I do not understand why postmark did not report any errors because the patches all appeared to be for fsck.

What I did:
* compiled GFS with the patch
* shut down GFS, lock_gulmd, ccsd, and pool manager on all 6 nodes
* loaded the new RPM
* rebooted all 6 nodes and started up the pool manager, and ran gfs_fsck on all of the file sytems. It was clean.
* Started gulmd
* mounted the GFS file systems and ran post mark several times. Postmark did not report any errors.
* unmounted the GFS file system, and ran gfs_fsck and got the above messages.
Any ideas?
thanks you for your assistance

Looks like you're running into bugs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160835 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160525 which have been fixed in the latest code. Unfortunately there is not a GFS 6.0 srpm released yet that contains this fix, but I've attached a patch that clears them up, as well as a couple other minor issues. I'm not sure about the postmark errors you're seeing - hopefully someone else on the list can shed some light on them. But try the fsck with these patches and see if there are any actual problems with the fs shown. Regards,
