Date: Mon, 31 Jul 2006 19:56:21 +0200 From: Adrian Ulrich <reiser4@...nkenlights.ch> To: Matthias Andree <matthias.andree@....de> Cc: vonbrand@....utfsm.cl, ipso@...ppymail.ca, reiser@...esys.com, lkml@...productions.com, jeff@...zik.org, tytso@....edu, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, reiserfs-list@...esys.com Subject: Re: the " 'official' point of view" expressed by kernelnewbies.org regarding reiser4 inclusion > Well - easy to fix, newfs again with proper inode density (perhaps 1 per > 2 kB) and redo the migration. Ehr: Such a migration (on a very busy system) takes *some* time (weeks). Re-Doing (migrate users back / recreate the FS / start again) the whole thing isn't really an option.. > Of course you're free to pay for a new > file system if your fellow admin can't be bothered to remember newfs's > -i option. Let's face it: Shit happens and nobody is perfect. A filesystem should be flexible (modern..) and support Admin/User-needs. We wouldn't need ECC / Raid / UPS's in a perfect world. > > Have you ever seen VxFS or WAFL in action? > > No I haven't. As long as they are commercial, it's not likely that I > will. Why? NetApp WAFL-Blurb: http://www.netapp.com/library/tr/3002.pdf Maybe we should crop the Cc: list .. this is getting OT. -- Adrian - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
