stopping and running xfs_repair on any disk gets me

root@Tower:/var/log# xfs_repair -n /dev/sdc

Am I going to have to figure out how to rebuild from scratch?

That will fail because you have the wrong device name :(  if using the /dev/sd? Devices you have to add a 1 on the end to specify the partition.   Using those device names will also invalidate parity so is not recommended.

 

if instead do this from the GUI while the array is in Maintenance mode by clicking on the drive on the Main tab to access the check/repair functionality it will use the correct device name for you and will also maintain parity.
