Good Morning,

     We recently had an ost encounter an issue with what appears to be its journal...  The ost is sitting as a partition atop a raid6 array, which was rebuilding due to a failed disk.  The ost has a journal on an external mirrored disk.  We unmounted the ost, and ran  the following: e2fsck -y -C 0 /dev/sdc2 -j /dev/sdd5

     After that we remounted the ost, and as soon as the first client tried to write to it after recover it went back to read-only.  We unmounted it again, ran e2fsck again, and again it flipped to read-only the second writes tried to go to it (I had set it to read only in the mds, and let it sit for a few minutes before setting it back to read/write to make sure that it was only on a write that the problem happened).
