Filesystem are not mounting on server after restart
Issue
- After unmounting and deleting a partition on a virtual RHEL 5.7 server and removing the virtual Harddisk from the vCenter console, the following error appears at boot::
"The superclock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device>"
