Thanks, Thomas, for your reply. My response is inline.

Our file system is mounted with the "user_xattr" option. Although it 
took FOREVER to do this readlog (a few times as long as the initial scan 
did), it did complete successfully. Can I assume, then, that these 
errors are not some sort of misconfiguration but rather they reflect 
changes in the filesystem? Perhaps it took so long because it was run so 
long after a file system scan?

What I'm trying to understand better is the relationship between 
scanning a file system and using the changelogs feature.

1) If changelogs is in fact working, does that mean that I *never* need 
to do a file system scan again? Or is it still a good idea to do 
occasional, full-system scans? If so, at what interval?
2) With changelogs in the picture, is there a way to indicate how 
up-to-date the information issued by robinhood reports is? Does one just 
assume it is real-time at that point, and thus the date of last scan (as 
reported by rbh-report -a) becomes irrelevant as an indicator of data 
freshness?

Thanks,
Jessica
