Yes, sorry, I forgot.  The system has an LVM setup, 2 logical volumes
over a group with three physical volumes (each is RAID5).  Filesystem
is JFS.  One of the RAID5s failed, which meant one of the logical
volumes could not be mounted at startup.  The normal way to react is
for the startup sequence to enter some path which ends by asking the
user for the root password. Single-user mode maybe?  With systemd and
this failed mount, this is not what happened.
