xfs_repair and extents size

xfs_repair and extents size

[Raz Ben-Jehuda(caro)]

Hello.
I am having some problems with extents sizes and xfs_repair.
Problem is that my files and directories are not real time files
and i am setting the extent size to 1MB. I have managed to
set the extent size to 1M by setting parent directory extent
to 1M and setting the inherit flag on.
But if I am running xfs_repair all extents on all directories in
the file system are being reset to zero.
I am using last xfsprogs 2.8.18 downloaded from sgi web
site.

thank you

Hi Raz,

It's quite possible xfs_repair hasn't been updated to handle extent 
hints on directories and files. I will investigate this.

Regards,
Barry.
