--- Comment #5 from Theodore Tso <tytso@....edu> ---
If it happens again, my suggestion would be to capture as much information
again, and then just reboot the system.   You can fsck the file system if you
are feeling especially paranoid, but it's likely that any corruption in data
structures are in-memory only.   That being said, the in-memory corruptions
could cause other corruptions that could eventually corrupt data or metadata. 
So rebooting right away would be a good idea.
