SUMMARY We are getting many ``Free blocks count wrong for group'' errors when running e2fsck on a 245-GB ext3 filesystem. This is when the file system is cleanly unmounted on a relatively quiet system to do a resize. From reading other messages here, my suspicion is that this is because we have e2fsprogs 1.32. Questions: * Should we use e2fsck/e2fsprogs 1.36 and will that probably

I am using SuSE 7.3 compiled ext3 support into the kernel and installed it. All my partitions load up as ext3 except / . I ran tune2fs several times, still doesn't take on the / drive. Most recent dumpe2fs -h show no features on that drive=, I keep going around in circles, removing .journal from / and running tune2fs but it never works for / What am I doing wrong? ( thanks in advance)

Hello, How to upgrade existing ext3 partition to new features? Moved from RHEL3 to RHEL4. I had to install from c0d0p6 so partition could not be reformated during install.

greetings one and all. when attempting to install centos 6.8 to an i386 mid tower, during setup of hard disk partitions, selection is for /dev/sde. if continued, after reboot, error is displayed after 'welcome to centos'. lines read: Checking filesystem fsck.ext4: no such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda3 /dev/sda3: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a

Hi, I zero-filled first 10MiB of my SSD(dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=10M count=1). As expected, this wiped my primary GPD header and first partition. Before the wipe, GPT was following: Disk /dev/sda: 250069680 sectors, 119.2 GiB Logical sector size: 512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): 2EFD285D-F8E6-4262-B380-232E866AF15C Partition table holds up to 128 entries First usable sector is 34, last

Hello, sorry if the question was asked a couple of times before but I couldn't find any useful hinds to this problem using google and the listman search-engine of the archive of this list. Somehow the ext3 filesystem on one of my machines died an after a reboot grub wouldn't come up again. What I did so far: fsck -y /dev/hda4 fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) e2fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004)

Hello: I am trying to set up user quotas on my /var partition to enforce limits on user's mailbox sizes. The machine is running CentOS 5. When I do this: /sbin/dumpe2fs /dev/md2 | grep 'Block size' Block size: 4096 That tells me the block size is 4k. But, if I do: repquota /var It is telling me that one of my users is currently using 10264 blocks. But, if I look at

Hi all, i wanted to ask you all about the exact overwrite mechanism used in ext3; is the information in the datablocks overwritten or written to a new location and the information in the referring inode is changed? Is it depending on the application used (and the functions it calls) or independent from that? Please don't hesitate to go into further details and thanks for your help!

hi I have made ext3 from ext2 by using mkfs -j option. I want to know if all commands of ext2 like dumpe2fs ( provided in e2fs-1.36 ) works fine with ext3 ? Do we have some commands that are unique for ext3 file system ? ____________________________________________ Salvy HCL Technologies Ltd A-11, Sector 16 Noida, U.P., India Ph: 91-9811250247 salilt@noida.hcltech.com

I made a filesystem (mke2fs -j) on a logical volume under kernel 2.6.20 on a 64-bit based system, and when I try to mount it, ext3 complains with EXT3-fs: dm-1: couldn't mount because of unsupported optional features (80). I first thought I just forgot to make the filesystem, so I remade it and the error is still present. I ran fsck on this freshly made filesystem, and it completed with

In fact the thing I really want to achieve is to be able to find the values and the algorithm that enable me to reproduce the percentage given by df (and to understand deeply what it means). Why do I need it? Because I'm trying to write some script to do capacity planning and space problem forecast. Currently I don't really know which values I should use to do it. (I could use the

Hello, I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 and it has ext4 filesystem. I have one very elementary question. When I say my filesystem is "ext4", which directories are part of it. I mean from the root I can see some directories such as /proc, /tmp, /dev etc. Are they store on the disk which have formatted with ext4, of certain files resides somewhere else. I am only sure only about /home

Hello, I've got a problem that is not solved after an e2fsck. What happens is that the kernel (vanilla 2.6.12) does this: journal_bmap: journal block not found at offset 1036 on hda6 Aborting journal on device hda6. ext3_abort called. The filesystem is mounted with errors=panic, so the system reboots. At boot-up an e2fsck is run on /dev/hda6. Sometimes it finds errors, sometimes not.

OK. Thanks for the journal information. I thought tune2fs -l and dumpe2fs were the same. In reality it's almost the same but not entirely ^^ I hear you about all the internal mecanisms that make the FS working or give it some features, and I do understand that it takes some place on the disk. However what I don't understand is why the number given in the "available column" is

I got the following error, but there''s no "cycle" I commented out File["/dev/sdb3"] and it works, but of course would choke if I ran it and the requirement were not met err: Could not apply complete catalog: Found cycles in the following relationships: File[/dev/sdb1] => Exec[echo -e "0,290\n,290\n," | sfdisk /dev/sdb] Here''s the node: node

Hey, I have two identical machines setup with a RAID 5 array. One of them is used for failovers and data from the master is synced everyday using rsync to the failover machine. The data on this disks are usually intranet KB's, DB's etc.. The RAID 5 arrays are formatted using the default options i,e mkfs.ext3 /dev/Xda. The RAID controller is 3ware escalade and each disk member in the RAID

Hi, I see some unusual block allocations on my OSTs, and I was wondering if someone could explain to my why, and help me to fix a performance problem. In order to track down a performance issue, I ran the following test: - I reformatted my OSTS (I have 4 OSTs). - I created a 10G file on each OST. - I ran dumpe2fs to see if I had some unusual fragmentation going on. dumpe2fs shows
