Sorry I missed this on the first go-round, but repair status 2 means the
log is dirty, so the admin must mount the fs to try to replay the log or
run xfs_repair -L to dump the log.  It does not mean that the fs is
already mounted.

"$NAME error: The filesystem log is dirty, either mount it to recover
the log.  If that fails, run xfs_repair -L to clear the log."
