Happy new year to everyone!

I'm taking advantage of holydays to try to fix an issue that has been 
bothering me for a while now. I have a debian based standalonevm which 
recently started presented this issue after running out of space.

The issue is that the vm never starts on it own. In order to be able to 
start it, I have to run: sudo xl console -t pv <standalonevm>.

Then it enters emergency mode and after exiting it, it starts and works 
normally.

>From the output of xl console:

I tried running fsck/e2fsck, but the command fails cause those partitions 
are mounted and cannot be unmounted (they are in use). With current issue, 
everytime I start the standalonevm I need to run xlconsole and exit 
emergency mode.

Any suggestions?

Thanks and have a great 2020.

Fernando.
