Probably a problem that has bitten me as well...
As long as any process still has
a file open anywhere in the respective directory tree,
Repair can not set the filesystem
to this "local-global-twin-view".
So, when after a while your repair works,
some process has released a file in that tree.
I haven't tried, but could some sort
of (maybe recursive ?) lsof on that volume
(or subtree) give a hint which processes
should be terminated ?
So long,
Steffen
