OS Upgrade Considerations For XFS Volume

[Bharathiraja P <raja@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

We recently upgraded our database system from OpenSuSE-11.4 to OpenSuSE-13.1

Post the upgrade we are noticing load spikes on our database system.

OpenSuSE 11.4 uses kernel-2.6.37 and OpenSuSE-13.1 uses kernel-3.11.10

There seems to be some changes related to XFS in new kernel and I'm getting this error when I run xfs_logprint

==============
sudo /usr/sbin/xfs_logprint /dev/mapper/pgsql-data

Do we need to do something for the xfs volume post os upgrade for better performance?
