Actually, this is could be difficult.

[root at onager onager]$ pwd
/export/home/onager
[root at onager onager]$ ls -ld
drwxrwxrwt  13 root root 4096 Mar 19 03:34 ./
[root at onager onager]$ touch test
touch: cannot touch `test': Read-only file system

The OS has put the disk into a read only state due to IO errors on the
disk which seem to have started on the 25th or April. The last one today,

May 11 15:11:01 onager kernel: ata1: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }
May 11 15:11:01 onager kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x8000002
