...using HA with CTDB, OpenAIS/Corosync, Pacemaker, OCFS2, ...). The samba servers are configured as "virtual server" as described in https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/cfgsmarts.html So each server gets (almost) the same configuration. For decrease the recover time (fschk , date restore from backup), the idea is, to split the directory configured in "share path" into different mount points (partition) in "smaller" volumes like 3-5TB. Additional advantage is, that if one file system crashes, not all data is impacted... My Questions: ------------...

...My server was running Oracle DB and HA(high availability) server for web service. The filesystem was ext3, version 0.5b. Suddenly HA server made error and rebooted alternately. So I stoped HA server and looked over mounted filesystem. When I thought the filesystem was destroyed, I ran the command, fschk.ext3. But it didn't work properly. Finally, I lost some of data. My question is "Is ext3 filesystem stable?" When I asked our HA server vender what the reason was, they said ext3 filesystem occured that problem. I don't think HA server is reliable, but worry about the stability o...

...oc proc defaults 0 0 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/hda /media/cdrom auto pamconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 # fschk.ext3 /boot gives this error: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alterna...

...y be a bug introduced in some Fedora kernel and this krept into RHEL/CentOS 4.4/4.5. Once this happens that filesystem (in my case /home) is read-only and the machine just hangs when one tries to shutdown (probably when unmounting) or remount ro (for a file check). After a hard reset the automatic fschk in dmesg lists only an few orphan inode cleanups. Also, I found that dmesg delivers me an output of the iptables logging (which is on kern.=debug) before the problem is fixed with a reset. Can I use fsdebug safely on that system while mounted? I'm not familiar with it and just stumbled over a...

Using 2.2.1a and a 2.4 kernel patched for win4lin. Everything is working but: I mount all the available network shares on my linux box as root to one network directory. If a windows client shuts down while the linux box is still connected, the share is not removed from my mount list or from /proc/mounts It cannot be removed with umount. I can kill the smbmount with kill -15 but the share is still
