Hi,
I have run old xfs on my server machine. The kernel is linux-2.4.7 and
xfs cvs based. This system was working fine for several months without
any xfs related troubles. But a problem happened at last.
After a hardware fault, some files on xfs were truncated to size
zero. The files were created via nfs v3 several hours before the
hardware fault, and were not overwritten after created. When the
filesystem was mounted at reboot, log recovery was done automatically,
and there was no error.
I thought file data would be sync'd to disk within minutes after it is
written. What happened?
Any ideas or patches?
