Cool. (Obviously I never really dug into the xfs_db manpage before to find stuff like this out.) That seemed harmless so I checked out all my filesystems. I got fragmentation factors from a high of 5
While on the subject of xfs_fsr, it would also be of interest to know what risks are involved in running it. For example, what damage can be caused if the system crashes while files are being defragm
I assume that's saying that ideally, those 28 files should take up just 28 contiguous chunks of disk, but in fact they're taking 355. If those ISOs are all 600 megs then your average contiguous chunk
Probably hold off for now on running fsr. Look at the other numbers on the output. The actual and ideal are more interesting. If you look at these, the difference is the number of extra extents you h
We were stressing some systems with 1.6TB drive arrays and ended up with very full, very fragmented filesystems. This led to fs corruption and/or sysstem instability when the system ran out of memory
