I did try the xfs_repair 2.8.4 for a volume running on 2.6.17.4 and it annihilated the volume. This volume was not showing signs of crashing. So... I guess I would certainly not run xfs_repair unless there is good reason.

Erm, wha..?  Can you expand on "annihilated" a bit?  (please send
me the full xfs_repair output if you still have it).

Nathan Scott,

I'm very sorry; I don't have the output anymore. By annihilated I mean that there were several directories trees that /didn't work/. If you tried to cd into the directory or take a directory listing... or used a file that you knew was in these certain directories then you'd get pages of debug message to the console; and no usable data. I re-ran xfs_repair and retried several times but the condition never seemed to improve or get worse for that matter.

I /incorrectly/ figured it was a known issue or I'd have saved the output. Sorry again.
