I'm not sure what errors you're referring to, but if the errors are
related to file system inconsistencies, by definition umounting and
re-mounting isn't going to fix things, and could result in more
damage.  For certain errors, you really do need to run e2fsck before
remounting the device.

Can you not change pacemaker to stop the device, run e2fsck, and then
remount the file system?

It seems like the safer the thing to do.
