Hi All
I am setting up a 2 TB file system to use for AFS volumes on an AFS file
server and I am wondering which file system I should use - XFS or ext3.
I plan to use Scientific Linux 5.1 or 5.2 x86_64 as the operating system
on the file server machine.
Suggestions, comments and recommendations

Michael Mansour, cut the CRAP/FUD out! I would NOT depend on ext3 if I
CARED about what was stored on my disks. I ONLY use ext3 if the data stored
is NOT of "very high importance". I use XFS when I DO CARE, so I use it all
the time. XFS is the most reliable, dependable, and robust file sys

Hi,
we currently have a problem on SL46 with kernel 2.6.9-78.0.13.ELsmp
to run a Legato backup on a 4.8 TB AFS partition on Xfs, composed of 4
physical
drives by means of LVM.
Contemporary there are about 1.9 TB of data to be read, but the backup
job always breaks after 1.6 TB.
# kernel-2.6.

I certainly don't want to start any flame wars about choosing between
ext3 of XFS.
One reason I was thinking of using XFS was because recently when I set
up an ext3 system, during the setup a note popped up that an fsck would
be forced on the file system after 180 days. Having to take down a

OK, Enough of this religious file system bashing. If this doesn't stop,
people are going to be taken off the list.
Michael, you said something that is completely false, and I need to
correct what you said.
Red Hat = Scientific Linux, so if it's not supported by TUV then it's not
supported

Michael Mansour when are you going to stop the FUD?? Red Hat doesn't
support it because it is developed and maintain by its competition.
Dependability, reliability, robustness is NOT a factor, it is pure politics
and nothing more. There have been plenty of people complaining that XFS isn't
