Just want to double check: I've made a few more changes here, based on
some of the other messages between you and Ted, and the one message from
Eric; I don't necessarily want to put your sign-off on it if I've
reverted any of your changes.  :-)

Done, along with a "contributions" section.

Uh, yep.  I've also grepped both files for other occurrences of "e2" and
removed anything that doesn't belong.  (There was only one occurrence,
also in the config file, under AC_UNKNOWN.  It runs more than just
e2fsck now.)

One thing I did realize, though.  The script still uses a lot of tools
from e2fsprogs -- logsave and blkid at least; possibly more.  Does it
make sense to require e2fsprogs on a system whose only filesystems are
XFS or reiser?  (Does it make sense to provide this script as a separate
package -- that would therefore depend on e2fsprogs -- on these systems,
either?)  Not entirely sure what I can do about that, though; I can use
"tee -a" instead of logsave, but I'm not sure about blkid.  Maybe
/proc/mounts might be helpful?

Summary of other changes:

Added XFS cases to some functions, to document that nothing needs to be
done (and get rid of warnings), and changed xfs_check to xfs_repair.
(Per Eric Sandeen's message.)

Changed back to two e2fsck calls, per Ted's message about the orphaned
inode list getting cleared with e2fsck -p.  Also switched back to -fy
instead of -fn, since more useful output is given, and the snapshots are
already read-write.  (I can easily revert these if needed, back to a
single "e2fsck -fn" call, but it sounded like the changes were probably
required?)  *Also* re-added "-C 0" so running the script interactively
is slightly prettier.

Append output to a single log file (per logical volume) in /var/log,
instead of a separate file per LV per day.  Added a date header to the
file as well, before the output of each fsck.

Other comments?

# lvcheck, version 1.0
#  Maintainer: Bryan Kadzban <bryan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

# Other credits:
#  Concept and original script by Theodore Tso <tytso@xxxxxxx>
#  on_ac_power is mostly from Debian's powermgmt-base package
#  Lots of help (ideas, initial XFS/JFS support, etc.) from
#   Andreas Dilger <adilger@xxxxxxx>
#  Better XFS support from Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx>

# Released under the GNU General Public License, either version 2 or
#  (at your option) any later version.

# Overview:
#
#  Run this from cron periodically (e.g. once per week).  If the
#  machine is on AC power, it will run the checks; otherwise they will
#  all be skipped.  (If the script can't tell whether the machine is
#  on AC power, it will use a setting in the configuration file
#  (/etc/lvcheck.conf) to decide whether to continue with the checks,
#  or abort.)
#
#  The script will then decide which logical volumes are active, and
#  can therefore be checked via an LVM snapshot.  Each of these LVs
#  will be queried to find its last-check day, and if that was more
#  than $INTERVAL days ago (where INTERVAL is set in the configuration
#  file as well), or if the last-check day can't be determined, then
#  the script will take an LVM snapshot of that LV and run fsck on the
#  snapshot.  The snapshot will be set to use 1/500 the space of the
#  source LV.  After fsck finishes, the snapshot is destroyed.
#  (Snapshots are checked serially.)
#
#  Any LV that passes fsck should have its last-check time updated (in
#  the real superblock, not the snapshot's superblock); any LV whose
#  fsck fails will send an email notification to a configurable user
#  ($EMAIL).  This $EMAIL setting is optional, but its use is highly
#  recommended, since if any LV fails, it will need to be checked
#  manually, offline.  Relevant messages are also sent to syslog.

# Set default values for configuration params.  Changes to these values
#  will be overwritten on an upgrade!  To change these values, use
#  /etc/lvcheck.conf.
