[opensuse-autoinstall] AutoYast SLES11SP2 configuring inode count
Hi list, is it somehow possible to configure the inode count via autoyast? Customer reported that settings like: <fs_options> - <opt_inode_size> <option_str>-I</option_str> <option_value>128</option_value> </opt_inode_size> - <opt_inode_density> <option_str>-i</option_str> <option_value>8192</option_value> </opt_inode_density> </fs_options> didn't help Thanks, Jochen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+owner@opensuse.org

No unfortunately it is not possible to give special formatting options in autoyast.

Since I consider this a potential problem, I added code that supports the new entry "mkfs_options" to upcoming openSuSE 12.3 and SLES11 SP3 releases. The above should then be possible by adding <mkfs_options>-I 128 -i 8192</mkfs_options> to a <partition> entry.

Thanks Thomas, is there any possibility to get a dud for this functionality? We need that in a larger customer environment. Thanks Jochen

To my knowledge, this functionality never existed in autoyast, so how can one rely on this (there was not even a FATE request for this). To my knowledge it is against our policy to make DUDs available for features that are not yet officially released (at least I never did that). No idea who would be necessary to approve that. Backport to SLES11 SP2 branch is also non-trivial since the changes are on top of all other SLES11 SP3 related changes.
