XSAN 2.2 and the "This item will be deleted immediately." issue

We just updated our system the other day from XSAN 1.42 to 2.2 as well as updating our servers and client machines from 10.4.11 to 10.6.3. We're encountering the error, "*This item will be deleted immediately. You can't undo this action. ,*" when anyone (admin included) tries to delete a file or folder from the XSAN volume. We magically got it to stop doing it for half a day and then it reappeared later without any real cause after a fiber switch for our client machines had a power failure.

Has anyone found a fix for this?

XSAN 2.2, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

Found a solution via the command line.

Remove directories in the following path: (each folder should represent a client OD login ex: 1025 is Edit1)

nyctismdc2:/ admin$ cd /Volumes/XSAN/.Trashes/
nyctismdc2:.Trashes admin$ sudo ls
1025 1026 1027 1028 1029 1030 1033 1034 1038 501 502
nyctismdc2:.Trashes admin$

Relaunch finder on each client and you should be fine
