Subject: Update of XFSPROG XFSDUMP on linux kernel 2.4.22
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:07:26 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1205842046.47dfb07ede86d@hermesadm.chb.fr> (raw)

Hi all XFS ML Users !

I'm Xavier from France.

I had installed two years ago a linux server with 2 XFS Partitions.

All is working like a charm !

* Except, 

xfsrestore command, that is often crashing (one time on two) with a dump file of 35Go


Here is my versions descriptions:

- Linux Mandrake 9.2 kernel 2.4.22
- XFSDUMP 2.2.13
- XFSDUMP 2.5.4  (installed by RPM) 


My question is :

Is it better to update the XFS programs to newer versions, or update my linux kernel, to avoid
problems ?

I've tryed to find some older distribs of xfsdump, but without succes (like 2.2.33)
the most recent distribs fails with the configure at manual install ...

What is the best for you ?
I really need your help before take a decision!


Thanks



Xavier
