Hello.
[I apologize, this is not completely XFS-related, but perhaps some
XFS+NFS gurus will be able to give some information.]
I recently faced a power outage on a fileserver with XFS filesystems
(CVS-2003-09-24_05). Some files written on NFS clients a few seconds
before the crash were damaged (zero-sized).
On a first approach, I thought this was XFS-related, but afterwards, I
also realized that this server was exporting its filesystems with the
async export option...It this possible that this async option have
caused these file damages ? If I use sync exports, does this mean that
XFS will effectively write on disk all pending data ?
Many thanks in advance.
