Thread-topic: Where are superblocks stored?
Hi All,

 

I'm investigating some compact flash failures we've had. We run XFS on
the CF. I've been getting a lot of I/O errors around logical block
543080. These are 512MB compact flash cards, and I think that block puts
it at about halfway through the CF. I know the I/O errors indicate an
error at a lower level then XFS. What I'm wondering, is if there's a
superblock stored there? Maybe we're hammering that area a lot, and
because of other problems with the card, we're getting these errors. 

 

I know that XFS stores its primary superblock at 0, but I haven't found
out where the secondary superblocks are stored. Any help is appreciated.
