similar to: ext3 mounted as ext2

Hi, I've got a Redhat 7.2 system: Celeron 400 512MB RAM 18GB SCSI HD (/boot (ext2fs), / (ext3fs)) 40GB IDE HD (/ (ext3fs)) I run a bunch of services on the box (apache + mod_perl, MYSQL, Samba, etc) but the system is not under heavy load. This system has performance issues reading/writing to the ext3fs filesystems. The performance issues cropped up when I installed Redhat 7.2. Previously

Old edit-livecd just kept adding to the ext2 fs image which meant it never decreased in size even if files were removed. New functionality does multiple passes of ext2fs creation. First pass creates a new ext2fs from the image file inside the squashfs. This first pass is to allow the user to optionally increase the filesystem size. If the -s parameter is omitted the existing size is used and

Hi, I am trying to compile the kernel with ext3 support and i downloaded the 2.4.13 kernel and patched it for RH 7.2 to update from the 2.4.7 precompiled ext3fs kernel. Then i selected ext3 support and and the JBD debugging support under 'make xconfig.' Then i ran the following commands make clean make dep make bzImage make modules make modules_install cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage

Dear list, pardon my ignorance on ext2/3fs. Is the ext2fs' 4Tb file system and 2GB maximum file size limit still true in ext3fs?

There's a big thread about filesystems on postfix-users@postfix.org Could you shed some light on that issue? ----- Forwarded message from Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org> ----- From: wietse@porcupine.org (Wietse Venema) Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2002 07:53:26 -0500 (EST) To: Lawrence Greenfield <leg+@andrew.cmu.edu> Cc: Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org>,

Hello All, I have been doing some research to find a method to increase the performance of writes to the hard drives in my servers. I am running Samba and all writes to the server hard drives are taking at least 3 to 10 times (It varies) the amount of time it took to write such files on our older Windows NT 4.0 File Server. The following information is provided to keep this issue on track...

Hi! I've upgraded my seawolf to ext3fs with the packages from Roswell (kernel, filesystem, mount, ....), but when doing 'tune2fs -j', it mentions 'Ext3fs version 0.0.5b'...? Isn't version 0.0.7a the latest?? Why isn't that version included in the Roswell kernel, but an older version is? And how can i upgrade my version of ext3fs? Thanks! Bart Verwilst

Good evening. We have some heavy-loaded servers on ext2, and we want to migrate to ext3fs. But we need full and stable quota support. I have headrd that there are some problems in quota usage under ext3fs. Is it true? Should we decline the ext3 usage as impossible in our servers? We need high-level stability in our server (hosting). Thanks before. -- Best regards,

Patch set fixes issues with image size increase when using edit-livecd Also address issue with ext4 root fs

Didn't hear back from anyone regarding if there is a way to determine if I am running the ext3fs with htree. Is there a way I can do it without checking the src code since I am running the precompired redhat kernel with 8.0? Perhaps an entry under /proc somewhere?

I am trying to determine the optimal filesystem for accessing large numbers of files (25,000+) in a single directory. I have read that ext3fs uses a sequential search algorithm and wanted to verify that this was still indeed the case since this article was published a year ago. http://bulmalug.net/body.phtml?nIdNoticia=1154 <http://bulmalug.net/body.phtml?nIdNoticia=1154&nIdPage=7>

I tried making my own LiveCD according to the instructions on the project site. First, applause, the basic procedure works like a charm. It's really easy to do and works right from the beginning (I'm building it inside a VM). I tried the minimal and the desktop version (with a few changes). I have encountered a few problems and have some questions. The German keyboard I set in the

Hi, I am a new ext3 user and I am having problems similar to what many people are facing on this list. I have done everything as the emails suggest. I am using SuSE 7.3 with the the 2.4.10 kernel and ext3 compiled as a module. Because it is 2.4.10 kernel, I created all my journals from a rescue disk and everything seems to be working right for the non-root filesystems. My fstab has all my

Hello, we have just observed a rather annoying behavior one of our servers. Specifically, when writing data to a file on an ext3fs filesystem at around 1.5 MB/sec, network connectivity suddently started to show signs of lag. The ping would spike up to ~1 second every 5 seconds or so. This affects the server in question and all hosts routing traffic through it (i.e., it's not a userland-only

Hi, I have ext3 installed against the 2.2.19 kernel. I am able to make the ext3 file system and mount it. I am not able to install the ext3fs for kernel-2.4.5 . I am unable to add the ext3 patch to the kernel. In the directory ~andrewm/linux/ext3/, which is the patch for 2.4.5 kernel. ( I can only see the patches for 2.4.6 and 2.4.7 ). Also, is there any prescribed pattern for

This maybe early, but is there an ext3fs patch for the 2.4.16 kernel -- also, in general where does one download the lastest ext3fs patches?? I found the 2.4.14 patch a few weeks ago on in the linux.org UK site, but all the patches appear to be taken off that site...Any help would be most appreciated... Thanks, Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello I have some large Partiton at 2 GB, 4 GB, 7 GB, 13 GB, 25 GB. How big I need the journal for its? Could I resize ext3fs with resize2fs, ext2resize-1.17 (with ext2prepare, ext2online), parted-1.4.21 Tools? The Partititons Magic 5.0 I can't use with ext3 only with ext2. -- MfG / With best Regards Rusmir Duško Registered Linux user: #130654 http://counter.li.org

Hi! Has anyone got any "success story" or any good advice of using Posix ACLs (or Enhanced Attributes) with Samba? I'm using Debian woody with 2.4.22 linux, ext3fs and Samba 3. -- Pirkka
