Hi, I just noticed that my file server running 2.4.18-pre3 + IDE patches & NTFS patches has this error message in the logs: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,4)): ext3_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 33554432, count = 1 This is the only ext3 error I have seen and the uptime is currently over 74 days. The error actually appeared two weeks ago. The timing coincides well with

Hi, I have seen and heard many cases of ext3 corrupted after abnormal powerdown (e.g. missing all the files in one directory). yes, UPS should help, but wonder what kind of worst scenario will ext3 present after powerdown. messed up meta data has been seen in many cases, for example, the in-direct block of one inode contains garbage, which causes the automatic fsck failed to work and user has

I want to convert all my NTFS partitions to ext3 since I'm no longer running Windows, at least on my main machine at home. I'm planning to tar the NTFS partitions to an existing ext3, reformat the partition as ext3 and untar it back. What is the best way to accomplish step two of this - reformatting the partition? I've only done this so far during the installation phase, and that

Recently, I had some experiences that raises the question as to how compatible (how safe) it is to mount and then read/write a partition using a system such as FC1 or debian where the partition was created under FC3. 1. I recently attempted to run e2fsck running on a FC1 system against a FC3 ext3 partition ... the program refused to run. When I took the e2fsprogs package from FC3 and

These are some boot/rescue systems with ext3 support. The RIP boot/rescue system. This is a boot/rescue system, it comes in three versions. There's a bootable cd version that comes with kernel 2.4.6 and has IDE and SCSI support. rip-39.iso.bin 2528kb They can all be found here: http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip/index.html There's more info at the above site.

hai everyone, i need information regarding the secure deletion of a file in ext3 what is the general overview design to implement? what are the functions to be hacked? how should i proceed ? what are the data structures to be changed? if there are any useful links in this topic please send me. thanks in advance sudhakar. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I am running a RH6/7ish system on an abit bp6 with 2.4-test12 -smp running rock solid. I have a new drive that I want to use to test out a journa;ing file system on, and thus far have not been happy with reiserfs and have been waiting for ext3 on 2.4 (I had been considering xfs as an alternative but from what i've read it's a little too robust for my needs). Anyway, I guess I am

23.09.2011 11:31, Janne Pikkarainen ?????: Thank you for reply, BTW, other webserver has almost the same bonnie results (10283ms and 5884ms) on ext3 partition with 45GB of data (1.5 millions of files)?! Hardware and RAID5(also hardware) are the same: HP Proliant DL380 G4 with SmartArray 6i controller (as I see it comes with 128MB BBWC enabler but not kit). I did not tried to mount fs with

Consider this section: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO-4.html#ss4.14 I have not done this before and I'm leary about Step 11 which is resizing the filesystem after doing a mkraid command. This howto lacks any ext3 documentation. Some questions I have are: 1. Should I convert back to ext2 on all my filesystems before I do a mkraid? 2. If I leave the system at ext3, will the

Greetings Everyone, A group in my office is designing/integrating what I would loosly label as an "embedded system". In that, it performs a dedicated task and is not a general purpose workstation or server. It operates in a harsh environment, particularly a questionable power environment and they are extremely concerned about inadvertent shutdown and recovery. They were totally

Hi, I've recently been playing about with recent ext3 0.0.6b and lvm 0.9.1 beta7 and am now able to trigger an "Attempt to refile free buffer" assertion. This seems to "only" occur when using ext3 on the root filesystem. Possibly that is related to the fact that the lvm utility I'm using to reproduce this problem is modifying data in /etc. The easist reproduction

Hi, Gettings lots of nasty ext3 errors, as follows: attempt to access beyond end of device 03:06: rw=0, want=1989391900, limit=55167178 EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,6)): ext3_free_branches: Read failure, inode=10092558, block=-1113264762 - several thousand of these in the course of a few seconds And lots of these: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,6)): ext3_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in

Hi, hoping that someone on this list can help me here is the Problem. After a crash it seems the journal could not be recovered.

Here's the situation. I have a dual boot machine - originally had Red Hat and Windows 2000 Pro. The NTFS partition never did seem to 'get along' with the Adaptec 2400A caching RAID controller. Linux always seemed to like the I2O drivers. I went from RH Enterprise to now running Centos 5.5. Works great! I really don't want the 200 gigs worth of NTFS. Can't I just run

Greetings - I have not been a long time follower of this list, but I have scanned through the last year or so of archives, after not finding much from google searches. I am hoping someone here can inform me if what I want to do is feasible, and give me some general guidance to follow so that I can continue my research and complete this task. I admin a RH3 system that is primarily a Samba

A few wild ideas/questions : 1) Is there a way to check the size of the journal of an ext3 filesystem ? I mean - the actually used size ; not the total size of the journal. 2) Would it be difficult to implement "freeze" of ext3 filesystem - that is, blocking all I/O to the filesystem until it's "unfrozen" (XFS can do that), for two purposes : A/ allowing
