HI , In my /var/ directory, I have a use file called ".journal" which takes about 30 Megs of space which is 98% of the file size. Can i move it to some other directory and have a link to that? or Can i refresh so that size gets reduced? or Can i do some thing to reduce the size? If the answer is yes for any of the question then please help me how to do that. Thanks Kandsen

Today, I had to uncleanly shutdown one of our machines due to an error in 2.6.28.3. Durin the boot sequence, the ext4 partition /home experienced a journal replay. /home looks like this: /dev/mapper/volg1-logv1 on /home type ext4 (rw,noexec,nodev,noatime,errors=remount-ro) Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/volg1-logv1 2,4T 1,4T 1022G 58% /home Filesystem

Hi, I have a large journal of 400MB (the max for 4k blocks), and I'd like to be able to check how much of it is being used. If it's not being used that much, I'd like to know if the writes *from* the journal to the rest of the disk could be delayed until a certain percentage of the journal has been used. It would be nice to be able to get more contiguous writes to the journal for

Hi, Im wondering what would be a good size on the journal file for a data=journal ext3 ? I can't find any reference to a "standard" value for other then ordered (8192 blocks).

Hi. I am using a large storage which is ext2 file system of 1T byte. It has many file types, doc, mail data, zip, etc. It doesn't have a database file. I want to change the file system from ext2 to ext3. It also can't divide to any partitions. How to decide journal mode and journal size? Please advice to me. Recommend a journal mode.

In commit 6b82021b9e91cd689fdffadbcdb9a42597bbe764, we increase our local alloc size and calculate how much megabytes we can get according to group size and volume size. But we also need to check the maximum bits a local alloc block bitmap can have. With a bs=512, cs=32K, local volume with 160G, it calculate 96MB while the maximum local alloc size is only 76M. So the bitmap will overflow and

Hi all I'm running succesfully 2.2.19pre13ext3 as mentioned in the subject line, I would like to increase the journal file I have the jfs/* and ext3/* files and I believe that: + asigning a new journal (-o journal=[new inode or increased inode]) data can solve it + increasing the actual file _appending zeroes_ to it can be used to increase it online, however the new space will not be

Is there any way to query the size of an existing journal? I have heard a number of sizes thrown around as defaults, but I need to be able to reliably get the exact journal size.

I created on my 60Gb hdd (data=journal) journal with 16Mb size, i think it not enough. As it is possible to change size of journal ?

Hello, as far as I understood ext3 will more or less hog a machine when writing away the journal. A customer is having a slowdown every 5 minues for about 30 seconds, the machine becomes more or less unusable. This is an NFS server serving 300 Gigs spread over 2 NFS shares. I'm wondering what would be the best course of action: a) make the journal bigger? b) make the journal smaller?

Hi, I've just recently noticed that the ext3 projects is being actiavely maintained (again?). And looking at the new pages for 2.4.x it really made me interested. But I've got a few small questions I'd like to clarify before I start to use it. 1) Tune2fs and mke2fs talk about a "default journal size" that is depending on the partition size but don't give

Hi I am running kernel 2.4.13 with ext3 support on an embedded system with 64 MB Flash and the .journal file takes size as 4 MB. Is it possible to minimize the .journal file ? With best regards/ Med venlig hilsen John Nørgaard

I want to convert the last of my filesystems to ext3. The only one left is /boot. It is not very big however, only about 10MB itself. Any recommendations on what size journal to put a /boot filesystem of only 10-20MB? Oh, BTW: "tunefs -j -J size=..." is awesome. No more gyrations with dd, chattr, lilo -R, etc. Nice! One note however: even in Stephen's 1.20.WIP.sct-20010216

If we race with commit code setting i_transaction to NULL, we could possibly dereference it. Proper locking requires journal pointer (journal->j_list_lock) we don't have. So we have to change the prototype of the function so that filesystem passes us the journal pointer. Also add more detailed comment about why function does what it does how it should be used. Thanks to Dan Carpenter

Hi all, Man page of tune2fs says that max journal size is 102,400 filesystem blocks, which translates to ~100MB with 1kb blocks or ~400MB with 4kb block. I wonder - why this limitation exists? Now that relatively cheap ssd devices exist (gigabyte iRam) that offer up to 4GB of space, it would be extremely useful to use whole capacity of such device for full data journaling. -- Jure Pe?ar

Hello, I have some performance problems in a file server system. It is used as Samba and NFS file server. I have some ideas what might cause the problems, and I want to try step by step. First I have to learn more about these areas. First I have some questions about tuning/sizing the ext3 journal. The most extensive list I found on ext3 performance tuning is
