|-----Original Message----- |From: John Pierce [mailto:john.j35@gmail.com] |I have seen a lot of traffic on other lists concerning the xfs |file system and random lockups caused by it. As posted |earlier, I have already converted the /home, /var, and /tmp |partitions to ext3 and the problems seem to be less frequent |now. As to frequency, I was have at least 2 lock ups per day |on average. To ease the io-traffic and thus improve performance mount all your partitions with options: 'noatime,nodiratime,logbufs=8' logbufs is bsize/sectsz default(4096/512) You find the settings with 'xfs_info filesystem'. Unless you run lvm/striping/mirroring there is no need for other options. -- MortenB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
