Alrighty, so I'm running a Linux-based colocated server that's 50 miles away, and running Red Hat 7.1 (not my choice). I rebooted the system a little while ago only to find out that there was a filesystem anomaly and the root password needed to be entered at the console to manually fsck. Obviously it's a little hard for me to do that myself, so I had to get the techs at the colo place to do it for me. My question is the following: What is the best way to prevent that from happening again? If there's a filesystem anomaly, it shouldn't wait for console input to do something. I don't know if I should change rc.sysinit to just automatically fsck -y, I don't know if that will completely prevent the problem or if it's even safe.
