Hi Tony, (Apologies for a late reply, this was marked as spam for some reason.) rbd-mirror daemon on the destination replays the journal in a point-in-time, crash-consistent fashion. If the destination is promoted while the source and/or the network is down, the promotion would have to be forced with "rbd mirror image promote --force" command. As such, fsck may have some work to do because the filesystem is not cleanly unmounted and the source is not cleanly demoted. In general, there is no way to avoid "partial" on-disk state from the filesystem perspective here because crash consistency is weaker than filesystem consistency.
