Hello all,
I am implementing a new mail server into our environment consisting of three machines - two Dell Opterons that will act as load balanced Postfix servers, and a 1.5TB RAID10 NFS server. All three machines are running CentOS 4.5.
Since the NFS is going to be used for only mail, I was kicking around the idea to use XFS. I have CentOS installed on an ext3 partition, and with the leftover space on the NFS I created an XFS partition. I tried to implement XFS into the kernel, and was coming across some issues. Even after installing xfprogs and xfsprogs-devel, and issuing the command:
yum --enable-plusrepos install kernel
I booted up the kernel and still could not mount my XFS share. I keep getting this error:
mount: fs type xfs not supported by kernel
You need to install kernel-module-xfs from the centosplus repo.
