We run a third party application that creates an inordinate amount of subdirectories in a single directory. To speed up I/O, I wanted to set the T attribute on the directory that will hold the subdirectories. The "chattr +T /usr/local/lepus-bb/a-0607" command returns status 0, but when I verify the setting, the attribute isn't there: # lsattr -d /usr/local/lepus-bb/a-0607

Postfix <http://www.postfix.org> does a chattr +S on its spool directory when it is installed on Linux. This is what is written in the postfix startup script -- # # LINUX by default does not synchronously update directories - # that's dangerous for mail. # if [ -f /usr/bin/chattr ] then CHATTR="/usr/bin/chattr +S" else CHATTR=echo fi -- Is this still required on ext3 ?

Enabling compression via chattr +c works with ZLIB (default method) only, right? Since there is no way to specify a compression method. Cannot I use LZO this way?

...tory, but new files created in that directory will the No_COW attribute.) So what exactly does that mean? Does it mean that it is unsafe? Or does it mean that it is simply unreliable? If I run a btrfs balance first will that clear out the COW snapshots and enable me to perform the recursive chattrs? What is the best way to approach this?

Hi list, I just noticed in the chattr(1) man page that there exists a 'j' attribute which actually does the same thing that data=journal mount option would do, expect it only sets this property on the directories of my choice. Big Thanks to the one that came up with that idea :) It allows me to set +j on mail queues that must sit on the same partitions as the rest of the system (the guy

What happens if you set an individual file inside a subvolume as nocow (chattr +C) and then take a snapshot of that subvolume and modify the file in both? Will btrfs now ignore the nocow attribute completely or will it do "as few copies as possible"? (I''d love to know if it''s possible to visualize the fragmentation of a single file.) -- To unsubscribe from this list:

[sent this to ext2-devel but haven't seen any other traffic there, so cc-ing it here] [Last week] while configuring a new box I came across a site suggesting: chattr -R -S +j +A /var/spool/postifx to improve postfix's speed on ext3, in lieu of mounting a separate fs there w/ data=journal. So I tried it. Both on the new box (2.4.21-7um) and on my laptop (about three csets shy of the

I'd recommend incorporating TDMA <http://tdma.sf.net/> to allow for easy discussion by outsiders Andrew Morton (of ext3 fame) had sent this message to postfix-users list I am forwarding so that Wietse can hopefully provide the definitive answer to the question Andrew Morton/Stephen Tweedie seek ----- Forwarded message from Andrew

During a routine trawl through the ext3 files, I found some astronomical file sizes, billions and billions of GB. They also has strange user and group names. I can not delete these "weird files" (the term used by the operating system utilities). Here are a few examples. The original files were created on Windoze 98 version 2 circa 2001. > 2411957 p--x---rwx 65487 299196551

Hi, I'm installing the operating system for my virtual machines from CD images and I would like for libvirtd to stop relabeling the corresponding files.  Since the installation media is no big secret, I have labeled the files with system_u:object_r:public_content_t:s0, but libvirtd keeps changing them to system_u:object_r:svirt_image_t:s0.  It also changes the ownership to qemu:qemu.  This

has anyone played with the securelevel variable in the kernel and the immutable flags in the ext2 file system? The only way I have found to change the flag is by patching sched.c from int securelevel=0 to int securelevel=1 The sysctrl code seems to allow the setting of the flag only by init (PID=1) and only upwards (0->1, etc). The problem is that I haven''t found a way to get init

An update to the ext3 filesystem for 2.4 kernels is available at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ The diffs are against linux-2.4.7 and linux-2.4.6-ac5. The changelog is there. One rarely-occurring but oopsable bug was fixed and several quite significant performance enhancements have been made. These are in addition to the performance fixes which went into 0.9.3. Ted has put out a

The latest ext3 patches against linux-2.4.7 and linux-2.4.7-ac3 are at http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/ Changes since 0.9.4 include: - Fixed a bug which could trip an assertion failure when using small journals under heavy load in full data journalling mode. - A patch from Ted plus the latest version of e2fsprogs plus the stomping of various ext3 bugs gives us preliminary
