Apologies in advance for the long mail:
2 mail servers running these services via heartbeat
-mount by label mail-store
-shared ip
-postfix
-http
-mailman

was attempting to increase the size of the shared partition using the below 
procedure but when trying to fsck the disk I got bad superblocks.

-stop heartbeat services on standby node
-stop heartbeat services on active node (which should stop all services in 
order, including unmounting of the shared partition)
-increase size of partition on san
-rescan iscsi node on standby node
-rescan iscsi node on formerly active node
-remove the journal of the ext3 partition "tune2fs –O ^has_journal [my device]"
-delete and recreate the partition using fdisk
-check the newly expanded partition for errors "fsck –n [my device]

At this point the fsck returned a "bad superblock error".  I tested using a 
similar setup but without heartbeat and did not get any corruption.  Any ideas 
as to what led to my bad superblocks?
