similar to: Support JFS in fstype

[please note that I'm not subscribed to the list] Hi guys, I've noticed that the size returned by the fstype utility was not correct for JFS filesystems (it returns the size in number of HW blocks instead of bytes). Here is a simple patch that addresses it (based on 1.5.7 from the debian package). diff -Nur klibc-1.5.7.orig/usr/kinit/fstype/fstype.c

I have a network server running FC5, with a hardware raid 3 card using 5 drives, as one large (1.2TB) partition in JFS. I chose JFS because of a recommendation for performance from a MythTV tutorial, but I don't really know much about file systems and am suspecting JFS to be causing my problems. I run samba, apache and MythTV on this machine, and there is essentially only one problem as far

Hello all, I'm relatively new to CentOS, but I've been using linux as my main operating system on both the desktop and server ends for the past 4 years. I currently have a PIII server with two 160GB IDE hard drives in it, in a virtual RAID 1 array. At the time of installation, the only FS choices for the largest partition, 120GB, were ext2 and ext3. I chose ext3, but now am wishing

Hi folks... trying to pick between jfs and xfs for a filesystem. In the past we've used jfs with CentOS + centosplus, however, an older post indicated that this may not be the best choice as the version of jfs included with the centosplus kernel would only be as new as the version that was included in the 2.6.18 kernel as RH doesn't backport fixes... It looks like xfs isn't part of

I had installed kmod-jfs in an earlier version of CentOS 7, 7.4 if I remember correctly. I now have a machine running the latest version of jfs module but kmod-jfs does not seem to be available. Is anyone running it on the current version of CentOS?

Hello I run the latest kernel from centosplus and use a JFS partition. Even though the jfs tools are installed, when the server crashes, it doesn't run fsck.jfs automatically when at boot time it detects that the partition is corrupted I have to run fsck.jfs manually and mount the drive. Is there a way to make fsck.jfs run automatically if required ? (I recently moved from Fedora to

I am a bit of a noob with Linux and Centos but would like to be able to access an old external USB disk formatted JFS by OS/2. I have seen there is a kmod-jfs package on elrepo that ought to work with Centos 6 but am unsure how to install kmods without hosing my existing system... If anyone would like to be so kind to give me a short how-to, I would be very grateful. Thank you.

I made some tests to see how ext3 reiserfs 3.6 and jfs survive disk errors. The test is simple: format a partition, copy the kernel source, unmount and and do ?dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdd bs=512 count=100000 seek=30000? to simulate a disk surface damage and then run fsck. seek=30000 ? this must be the second half of journal in reiserfs and ext3, for jfs I don't know Result: jfs: ---- total

Hi, I'm wondering what issues / problems I might run into if I'm using samba 3 on linux with the IBM JFS filesystem installed to be case-insensitive. I've had no luck finding anyone who says they've tried it. I'm having trouble with a group of Windows based developers programming in Delphi (Pascal) and Foxpro who seem to have real problems keeping the case of filenames

I'm setting up a new file server and I just can't seem to get the expected performance from ext3. Unfortunately I'm stuck with ext3 due to my use of Lustre. So I'm hoping you dear readers will send me some tips for increasing ext3 performance. The system is using an Areca hardware raid controller with 5 7200RPM SATA disks. The RAID controller has 128MB of cache and the disks

This patch adds support for swap detection to fstype (to be applied on top of the previous luks patch). The patch is now against klibc's git tree instead of klibc-1.2.

Howdy, I have dovecot installed on CentOS (rhel3 clone), and I'm using Dag's dovecot package. I have postfix setup to deliver to Maildir, in /home. The /home volume was formatted with JFS. In this setup, both Outlook and Thunderbird would not show any new mail unless they were completely shutdown and restarted. I have moved /home to an ext3 formatted and all is well. Anyone have
