Has anyone experienced the following condition with a private volume disk under
MPE/iX?

We have a private volume RAID disk which sustained directory corruption
resulting eventually in a systems failure on purging a file. Now when the volume
mount is initiated it reports an error mounting the volume and gives the message
"VOLUME WILL BE MOUNTED AS ERROR VOLUME."

A dstat shows the volume with status ERROR_MOUNT but we are unable to FORMATVOL
unless the status is SCRATCH or UNKNOWN. How can the ERROR_MOUNT status be
changed so that we can set up the private volume from the beginning?
