From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Mark Fasheh Date: Wed May 26 20:16:04 2004 Subject: [Ocfs2-devel] [IMPORTANT] OCFS2 revision 946 Message-ID: <20040527011601.GH25513@ca-server1.us.oracle.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com For the last couple of weeks we've been making some important format changes for OCFS2. We're not done yet, but much of it is in a state where we feel it can be merged back into trunk and played with. There are bugs, and there will be more disk format changes, but at least now others can pitch in. You will absolutely have to reformat your filesystems after picking up this revision (946). The userspace tools aren't as ready for ocfs-tools trunk yet though, so you'll need to pick up the new-dir-format branch of ocfs-tools and use that to create ocfs2 file systems. $ svn co http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs-tools/src/branches/new-dir-format/ ocfs-tools Those of you who have read the ext3 code might find some of this new stuff familiar. This is because we've finally done away with our dirnode structures and gone to something a little less... broken :) --Mark -- Mark Fasheh Software Developer, Oracle Corp mark.fasheh@oracle.com
