Subject: ext4 file system check
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2015 09:16:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434618980.21497.14.camel@X220> (raw)
Hi folks!
We are running several server system with ext4 as file system.
An Ubuntu 14.04 server installation has disabled the periodic file
system check per default:
# uname -r
3.13.0-55-generic
# tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 | grep mount
Last mounted on: /
Default mount options: user_xattr acl
Last mount time: Thu Jun 18 11:04:23 2015
Maximum mount count: -1
It seems this change was introduced with Ubuntu 13.10:
*https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/437298-fsck-not-needed-ext4-filesystems
Therefore my questions:
* Is a regular file system check recommended for ext4? (i.e. for
consistency)
* Is there any detailed documentation what happens while a check is run?
Thanks a lot, Georg
