Gidday, Are you using ext4 for production system? Or is it better to opt for a more conservative strategy, like ext3 for instance? What are your experiences? Thanks in advance, Lo�c.

GFS2 needed or not?

Hey everyone. I am in the process of setting up an iSCSI SAN to function as a log storage device for a number of servers. All of the initiators see the volume, and originally I formatted it with ext3 and went on my merry way. However after some research I'm having concerns that I should nuke the...

XFS - Custom Kernel or Module?

Hey everyone. I am going to be using XFS for a project coming up. We're running RHEL 5.5. Simply typing modprobe xfs works just fine. The kernel module loads without any issue. Is there any issue with doing this and inserting "modprobe xfs" into /etc/rc.modules? Is there a major reason to...

VMWare,XFS and iSCSI issues!

I have a RHEL6 VM that requires the use of remote storage using iSCSI and XFS for the mount point. Here's the issue: With XFS you can't use the _netdev option for your mount point (pause for network) so my mount point doesn't mount properly because the network isn't up yet. I've moved the...

vxr5check

vxr5check(1M)															     vxr5check(1M)

NAME

       vxr5check - verify RAID-5 volume parity

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/vx/bin/vxr5check [-i | -v] [-g diskgroup] volume

DESCRIPTION

       The vxr5check utility compares the parity of each stripe of a RAID-5 volume specified by volume.  vxr5check reads the data for each stripe,
       generates the parity for this stripe, and compares this parity with the existing parity.

       vxr5check can be run against the entire RAID-5 volume, or incrementally on RAID-5 stripe boundaries, by specifying the -i option.

OPTIONS

       -g diskgroup
		 Specifies the Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM) disk group name for the RAID-5 volume name for verification.  If this option  is  not
		 specified, the default disk group is determined using the rules given in the vxdg(1M) manual page.

       -i	 Verifies the RAID-5 volume incrementally per stripes.	If a parity mismatch is found, that stripe location is displayed.

       -v	 Verbose output for the incremental vxr5check verification.  The verbose option outputs each stripe number that is being verified.

OUTPUT FORMAT

       In  verbose  mode and incremental mode, summary reports for each stripe of the RAID-5 volume are printed in output records.  If an error is
       returned for a stripe, then an error message and stripe number are displayed.  In non-verbose mode, if an error is returned, an error  mes-
       sage is displayed.

       If a parity mismatch error is determined on a stripe, vxr5check exits on that stripe and does not continue for the remaining stripes in the
       RAID-5 volume.

FILES

       /usr/lib/vxvm/bin/vxr5vrfy    The utility that vxr5check calls to perform RAID-5 parity verification operations for  the  specified  RAID-5
				     volume.

EXIT CODES

       The  vxr5check  utility exits with a non-zero status if the attempted operation fails.  A non-zero exit code is not a complete indicator of
       the problems encountered, but rather denotes the first condition that prevented further execution of the utility.

       See vxintro(1M) for a list of standard exit codes.

NOTES

       Do not run vxr5check on a volume that is in degraded mode.
