I have been very happy with backuppc so far. Thanks for the great program.
I am creating a new filesystem for backuppc that will be about 3.4 Tb. It consistes of 6 750gb SATA drives in RAID 5 on 3ware raid controller also using LVM. (though not to span arrays, just for flexibility) Does anyone have any filesystem tuning ideas or options they used to create their filesystem that you think work well, particularly for large filesystems? If so, please share the mkfs command line you used to create your filesystem. I have been using resiserfs, but have had to do reiserfsck --rebuild-tree a couple of times on my old 1.5tb filesystem, so I'm thinking of moving to something else that journals data in additional to metadata but feel free to try to talk me out changing. Any thing I should watch out for? (such as how do I ensure I have enough inodes if I choose ext3) Thanks and Best Regards, Ben Nickell ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
