Pardon me if this has been dealt with previously--

The i386 xfs progs seem to require a newer glibc, like that available on RedHat 8?

error: failed dependencies:
        libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by attr-2.1.1-0
        libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by xfsdump-2.2.4-0
        libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)   is needed by xfsprogs-2.3.6-0

Should I be updating my hundreds of machines to get this (not interested at this point due to production demands), or are my current versions considered nominally good for use with 2.4.20 and latest cvs snapshot kernel patches? Currently using:

attr-2.0.11-0.i386.rpm
xfsdump-2.2.1-0.i386.rpm
xfsprogs-2.3.3-0.i386.rpm


Hey--xfs has come a long way this year. Around May timeframe, we were losing a disk or two a day to xfs log corruption when workstations would crash (using A|W Maya). That data loss simply is not happening any more for us. Perhaps I don't need to update anything, but I'd like to have a few development machines to continually test things out, of course.
