That would be an option. 

But basically it would be great to have something to detect a "corrupt" 
filesystem or at least to check if the filesystem was not cleanly unmounted.

Background is that we had some clusters that crashed because of corrupt 
gfs-filesystems. But we couldn't see from the dump that those filesystems 
were corrupt and needed to be fixed.
