Team xfs:

I have 1 FS, 1/4 TB waiting to be converted from v1 to v2.
I have a full backup , but I don't want to waste and make a wrong 
step, and well, recreate FS with xfs v2 and recover the info from tape 
:/ (My would kill me)

The FS was created with 
    mkfs -t xfs -l size=32768b -f /dev/sdb1

and mounted with: 
    mount -t xfs -o logbufs=8,logbsize=32768 /dev/sdb1 /nas02

But I was reading xfs_db manual, based in Chris Wedgwood tip, and I am not 
so clear how to do it. 

I heard in the list there was a procedure done in IRIX to convert file 
systems to v1 to v2, but I am not sure if Eric or Steve have worked on 
that yet (export to linux). Also I dont know if I can do it in my current 
file system in the way I created previously.


I wouldn't like to rebuild the FS again only for v2, but I know it's going 
to be much better...

I hope you can help me boys.

Thanks

Benito.-
