you mean that journaling is enabled by default???? i don't think so. i think i misunderstanding. may i ask you to explain it more clear?


gjournal is journaling through GEOM. Since Freebsd 9 soft-updates journaling has been implemented for UFS. So if you want journaling for an UFS FS there is no reason to use gjournal anymore. (check manpages of newfs and/or tunefs and the "-j" and the "-J" flags)

        thanks Michael

        this is what i've done (based on the FreeBSD handbook): creating a
        partition for journal, go to single user mode, unmount desired
        partition
        (for example /usr), load gjournal, add journal partition to
        /usr partition.
        this procedure works well for user and other partitions except
        root because
        i can not unmount it.

        should i set up journaling in fixit mode with gpart? how? i
        try different
        ways but none of them work for me:((

                hello everybody

                i want to setup a journal partition for my root
                partition. but i do not
                know how to do that. in FreeBSD handbook, it is done
                in single user mode,
                unmount the desired partition and assign the journal
                partition to it. i
                test this procedure and it is done for /usr partition
                but for root
                partition, it can not be unmount in single user mode.


            See the man page on gjournal

                  To configure journaling on the UFS file system using
            gjournal, one
            should
                  first create a gjournal provider using the gjournal
            utility, then run
                  newfs(8) or tunefs(8) on it with the -J flag which
            instructs UFS to
            coop-
                  erate with the gjournal provider below.
