NSX-T Data Center EDGE does not start correctly

Issue

After some failover attempts performed on the EDGEs, following some laboratory tests, I found myself in the situation where the EDGE is no longer able to boot properly due to file system problems.

Failed to start File System Check on /dev/mapper/nsx-var+dump.
See 'systemctl status "systemd-fsck@dev\\x2dvar\\x2bdump.service"' for details.

We performed the command below as suggested, then ...

.. we performed check of the file system ...

fsck -y /dev/mapper/nsx-var+dump

reboot

After the reboot, the Edge has started normally.

That's it.
