The nature of the error (metadata LSN a few blocks larger than the current recovered LSN) implies that part of the log was lost during device failure/recovery and hence not recovered when mounting the filesystem. > Seems like the next step is to just run xfs_repair (with or without > log zeroing?) on this image and see what shakes out? Yup. You may be able to run it on the image file without log zeroing after the failed mount if there were no pending intents that needed replay. But it doesn't matter if you do zero the log at this point, as it's already replayed everything it can replay back into the filesystem and it will be as consistent as it's going to get. Regardless, you are still likely to get a bunch of "unlinked but not freed" inode warnings and inconsistent free space because the mount failed between the initial recovery phase and the final recovery phase that runs intent replay and processes unlinked inodes.
