Bug Description
Hi, I have a 24T file system ext4, ran fsck. It is running fsck for 20 hours so far and looks like it will keep on going.
The system is not a slow machine at all, relatively new server.
I checked top and saw that CPU usage was not high. I seen similar problem like this before but CPU usage
was high in the past.
I'm using ubuntu-14.04.4 lts. and running this on the 2nd extra copy of the superblock. I didn't want to
do it with the main copy. I ran e2image -r -s on the main superblock but it wouldn't create an image file.
I doubt that anything useful is happening and I don't know how to debug this further so please advise
if I should keep it going else I'm likely to shut it down soon

Has fsck run spit out any errors or output? If you have a completion output, has it given an percentage output, or some other way of determining how far along fsck is going?
When e2image wouldn't create an image file, did it report any errors?
