----- Original Message ----- | Hi All. | | I have a CentOS server: | | CentOS 5.6 x86_64 | 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.centos.plus | e4fsprogs-1.41.12-2.el5.x86_64 | | which has a 11TB ext4 filesystem. I have problems with running fsck | on it | and would like to change the filesystem because I do not like the | possibility of running long fsck on it, it's a production machine. | Also I | have some problems with running fsck (not enough RAM, problem with | scratch_files option) and if the filesystem will need intervention I | will | be in a problematic situation. | | Which other mature and stable filesystem can you recommend for such | large | storage? | | Best regards, | Rafal Radecki. | _______________________________________________ | CentOS mailing list | CentOS@centos.org | http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos |
As someone who is working with 15-30TB volumes, use XFS, but be sure you have a lot of memory. 48GB at least and more if you have directories with 10s of thousands of files in them.
