Thanks for reporting this - it looks like some more detail will need
to be added to the SA. The fsck needs to be run without the filesystem
being mounted read-write, most likely in single user mode.

I brought a test system down to single user mode, remounted / as
read-only, and ran the fsck command as follows:

# shutdown now
...
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
# mount -u -o ro /
# fsck -t ufs -f -p -T ufs:-z
/dev/ufsid/5bf225f5889c157d: 28576 files, 304757 used, 27570235 free
(899 frags, 3446167 blocks, 0.0% fragmentation)
# exit
