the issue i saw the FS size was much less the logical volume size - when we tried to mount it .....so we attempted an fsck - we lost all the data
these are the messages we got before the data corruption happened
the hal.hotplug seems to have triggered something - the filesystem is on an LVM2 volume with multipathing managing the hba paths to EMC
does this ring a bell with anyone ?
