There seem to be problems below the dm-crypt layer. Both LVM volume groups report Incorrect metadata area header checksum Since the architecture is, starting at the top and working down, file system crypto (sometimes) LVM volume <- LUKS at this level LVM volume group <- corruption at this level partition of the RAID virtual disk RAID physical disk partition The RAID at least still seems intact. I'm at a loss about what could have corrupted both volume groups, on separate physical disks. Things did seem to start going bad after the snapshot filled (6:30), though it was an hour later I got the first file system error. Maybe the crash a couple of days ago corrupted some key operating system files. At any rate, if the volume groups are bad I suspect I'm toast and need to go to remote backups. There is some stuff about recovering the VG header on the net, but even if that succeeds it would be hard to trust the rest of the file systems.
