Hi All, I just finished rebuilding a nfs server with SLES 7.2 and used the reiser file system. Before I had started I had copied all the dirs I wanted to save to a server running SuSE 7.1 P that was using the ext2 file system. When I checked the various dirs against each other prior to rebuilding the s390 nfs server the sizes all agreed (du -ch <dir> was the command). Ext2 was the file system on both the s390 and Intel version.
Now after rebuilding the s390 nfs server using the reiser file system and copying the dirs back, in some cases (seems to be the really BIG dirs), the sizes on the s390 nfs server are slightly smaller now (say 911M vs 914M). The copy command I used (in both cases) was cp -Rpv <from> <to>. Could this size difference be due to using reiser instead of the ext2 file system and are the files I have on the new s390 nfs server OK? Thanks in advance for any help, Scott
