Excellent save!!! The OP might want to continue the "Giving Season" by giving himself a brand new system backup.

My God, it didn't have the command fsck.jfs, so I reinstalled jfsutils.  Now the array mounts.

I don't understand it.  I thought the JFS driver is in the kernel?
Like many parts of Linux, most of JFS is in the kernel, but some support
tools are separate.   Most filesystems have a separate mkfs.$FSTYPE and
fsck.$FSTYPE.  ALSA (sound subsystem) has alsamixer etc.  md/RAID has mdadm,
nfs has nfs-utils etc etc.  Each of these are primarily kernel subsystems,
but need user-space tools to configure and manage them.

But the important thing is that you have your data back, preparing you for a
Happy New Year!

I went in to turn on my home theater system today, and found a blank screen.  I rebooted and it would not mount /home, which is a 4TB RAID10 array with every movie and show I've recorded over the past two years.  I try to mount it manually, and "wrong fs or bad superblock".  The array is getting set up fine, but the filesystem seems to be destroyed.

Unbelievable.  This isn't supposed to happen.  It happened once before when I wasn't using RAID, but that was the BTRFS filesystem and I blamed it for being pre-release.  But now it's RAID10 with JFS.
None of your logs show anything about jfs....

What does
   fsck.jfs /dev/md2
report?
What about
   mount -t jfs /dev/md2 /home

??
