# mkfs.xfs -f -L ws1phptmp -b size=4096 -d su=65536,sw=4,agcount=4 -i attr=2 -l lazy-count=1,su=65536 /dev/sdf1
log stripe unit specified, using v2 logs
Allocation group size (65262) is not a multiple of the stripe unit (16)
Why is above error generated at all? Shouldn't mkfs.xfs handle that
situation and change agsize automatically? If I then do:
# mkfs.xfs -f -L ws1phptmp -b size=4096 -d su=64k,sw=4,agsize=65262b -i attr=2 -l lazy-count=1,su=65536 /dev/sdf1
log stripe unit specified, using v2 logs
agsize rounded to 65264, swidth = 64
meta-data=/dev/sdf1 isize=256 agcount=4, agsize=65264 blks
= sectsz=512 attr=2
data = bsize=4096 blocks=261048, imaxpct=25
= sunit=16 swidth=64 blks, unwritten=1
naming =version 2 bsize=4096
log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=1200, version=2
= sectsz=512 sunit=16 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0
So no problem using agsize instead agcount, where agcount complained
about group size = 65262, which I then used without problem?
