[SunHELP] UFS logging worth it?

[Fletcher, Joe]

Hi Magnus,


|Let me correct my previous message, if you dont have the logging
|turned on in the /etc/vfstab, the file system wont know that it is
|a logging filesystem upon reboot, thus it wont be using the logs
|for the fcsk. So if you just did a remount and turned on the logging
|feature without adding it to /etc/vfstab i dont think it will work.

I've just been and check the vfstab file on one of the machines here
on which I was having to do the manual fscks. Must confess I'd never checked
it until now but there
are two entries for each filesystem, one commented out. The commented
version has logging enabled
the active one doesn't. I'll need to find out from the poeple who installed
the machine why this is
the way it is. The box is a dual CPU E450 running Solaris8.

This'll teach me to be a bit more thorough in knowing systems I inherit.


Cheers

Joe
