LEAFN node level is 1 warning in xfs_repair

LEAFN node level is 1 warning in xfs_repair

Hello,

I have a xfs filesystem on a SuSE SLES10 (kernel 2.6.16.21) system that was 
created just a week ago. Because I wanted to know how long it might take to 
run xfs_repair in case it might be needed I started xfs_repair on it without 
that I thought I would actually need it.

Now for several inodes xfs_repair reports in Phase 3 and 4 

LEAFN node level is 1 

warning. In the mailinglists I found that other people have the same 
experience. 

The question is, if this warning anything serious that might lead into a 
filesystem corruption later. Or can I just forget about this warning?

Thanks
Rainer

It is a bogus warning that has been fixed in xfsprogs 2.8.15 and later.

You can forget about the warning.
