I'm having some problems with several servers I've built recently (7.0-RELEASE) that are using gjournal. I had two reboot a few days ago (un-related to FreeBSD problems I think)...but when they came back up, the file systems wouldn't mount since they were not clean. Now, I understand that UFS knows nothing about the fact that it's journaled, and the journaling knows nothing about UFS...but it's my understanding that by using gjournal, you should really never need to fsck a file system. However, the only way to get them to mount is by doing the fsck. Is there something else I should be doing instead of fsck? And since I know it will probably come up, I built the file systems using the instructions and notes at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gjournal&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+7.0-RELEASE&format=html. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
