[OpenAFS] OpenAFS volumes filesystem
Hello, I'm starting up an OpenAFS installation, and I've arrived to my first dilema... What filesystem to use for openafs volumes? Ext2? Ext3? ReiserFS? XFS? Any hint? Shouldnt use any of the above? beter performance with any of those? Only ext2 is the way to go? Thanks in advance. PD: Haven't found information about this anywhere. /Yam ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info

Re: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS volumes filesystem
Nice urls! One question... Since there's differenciation in choosing filesystem for afs data and client cache, what if i'm on a windows9x/xp client? no care for the fs then? Or I'm lost with the client cache concept.. Tnx. http://grand.central.org/twiki/bin/view/AFSLore/AdminFAQ#3_29_What_underlying_filesystems http://grand.central.org/twiki/bin/view/AFSLore/SupportedConfigurations yam wrote: Hello, I'm starting up an OpenAFS installation, and I've arrived to my first dilema...

Re: [OpenAFS] OpenAFS volumes filesystem
For the fileserver (with NAMEI-interface which is obligatory for Linux) you may take whatever you want. We are using reiserfs, other people ext3. ext2 has the disadvantage of the slow fsck if for some reason your system should crash.

Have you (or somebudy else) tested performance using different filesystems om the same machine? /Jimmy ___ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
