Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • /dev/emcpowerX backed logical volumes cannot checked by fsck in boot time, and the system cannot boot.
fsck.ext4: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/mapper/vg01-lv00
/dev/mapper/vg01-lv00:
THe superblock 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>
