similar to: Ext3 & InterMezzo issue

Hi, I have a detailed question about ordered data writes. Suppose we (i.e. intermezzo) does a transaction, which is closed and then followed by an ordered write. Let's assume the ordered write doesn't require new allocation metadata. Is the write still postponed until the first transaction has committed? As far as I can see, prepare_write always starts a transaction, but I'm

Hi Alan, Would you be opposed to including an InterMezzo patch for the ac series soon? It doesn't touch anything outside of its fs directory. It would probably help us get a few more users and fits nicely with ext3 being in ac now. We are also quite far along Reiser support for InterMezzo. Please let me know your thoughts on this. Thanks! - Peter -

Hi, We have encountered another funny with ext3 on 2.4. Like the kernel NFS server, we have a routine in InterMezzo that does something like looking up an inode by inode number. (compare intermezzo's presto_ilookup or knfsd's nfsfh_iget) Effectively both of these routines do ilookup() { inode = iget(sb, ino) if (inode->i_nlink==0) iput(inode); .... } We find that

Im intending use Ext3 file system in my web farm. Im using RedHat 6.2 (kernel 2.2.16-3) and Turbo Linux Cluster Server 6.0. I have NO SUCCESS in path my own kernel. I downloaded the following ext3 packages: ext3-0.0.2f.tar.gz (linux-2.2.16-3.kdb.diff , linux-2.2.16-3.ext3.diff ) e2fsprogs-1.20-0.WIP.i386.rpm e2fsprogs-1.20-0.WIP.src.rpm e2fsprogs-1.20-0ext3.i386.rpm

Hi, A system running ext3 crashed this afternoon (nothing to do with ext3, bad network driver). Is was saving a file from emacs when it happened. The file system is 0.06b and had ordered data as the mount option. Let me emphasize this was running ext3 pure, not with SnapFS or InterMezzo layered on top of it. strace reveals that Emacs does open("existing file name", O_TRUNC |

Hi, First, I want to say that I have fallen in love with CentOS4. I have been using RedHat since the 5.x days. After RedHat dropped the stable system to go to a unstable system and a Enterprise system I felt like I was being left out in the cold. I quickly found out about WhiteBox and used it for quite a while. Then I learned about CentOS...and switched to it for my server needs. I have

Hi, While doing some stress testing with presto module from the intermezzo project layered over ext3, I got the following assertion failure: Jan 17 23:09:55 planck kernel: Assertion failure in jfs_prelock_buffer_check() at journal.c line 410: "bh->b_jlist == 0 || bh->b_jlist == BJ_LogCtl || bh->b_jlist == BJ_IO || bh->b_jlist == BJ_Data" Jan 17 23:09:55 planck kernel:

Hi, We hit an interesting issue with Ext3 in ordered data mode. A large file was truncated (open with O_TRUNC) and immediately over-written with a single write call. The write call returned ENOSPACE, but a check for space (using essentially statfs) promised that there would be plenty of space. The reason turned out to be that the blocks freed by the truncation were not yet available to the

Hi, I noticed that using a sparse file as a loop device leads to non journaled block allocation in Ext3. Is this something that should be fixed? - Peter -

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Sorry for this general question, but I'd like to hear your opinion on this subject, but I'd like to set up a really working backup solution for my PDC, currently it uses NFS, so there are lots of issues: No ACLs, When NFS server goes down, everything fails.

I am the author of BackupPC (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net) and I am working on adding rsync support to BackupPC. I am implementing the server-side in perl, and the client will run vanilla rsync.

Hello, I have today released an initial version of extended attributes and access control lists for ext3 (patch against the 2.4.13-ac3 kernel). Eric Jarman <ejarman@acm.org> has contributed a lot to this effort. Since I'm not very much into the innards of ext3, can some of you please take a look at the patch, and see whether it contains any flaws (and tell me which flaws)? Thanks! The

Hi, I'm running SuSE 9.3 fully updated using YOU and I *have* re-booted the box (in a hope to sort out the uname -r issue mentioned below).

I have downloaded what I think I need and placed it in /usr/src (see

Hi, Arthur found out that ext3 is not changing the ctime on the "old_dir" (the object that is being renamed), but ext2 does.

I need to maintain a log that contains information on files that are read / modified . I was suggested losf, but using lsof does not solve the problem as files opened/closed between two successive runs will always be missed. With reference to the stated need I have 2 Questions. 1) can data in the journal file be of any help to me ? if yes how, ? 2) can kjournald be used in some way ?

Lo, Actualy i'm looking for documents about journalised file system, in order to be able to compare them self. I need accurate information if i want to make a good study.
