Re: disk maintenance raid1



Hi Francesco,

you can adjust the number of mounts after which the filesystem is checked with 'tune2fs -c <N>'. Or you can use 'fsck -i' to use a time dependent checking.

Hi Robert;
Thanks a lot for providing the information that I was looking for. I use
ext2 fro boot and ext3 for everything else. Actually, I want that
periodic checking is carried out automatically.

cheers
francesco

    Hi Francesco,

    which filesystems do you use on these installations?

    It is possible that the checks are disabled. You can check this via
    'tune2fs -l' and look for the parameter 'Maximum mount count'. Disk
    checks are disabled if this parameter is set to '-1' or '0'.

    Another possibility might be the usage of ext4 on squeeze and
    something else on wheezy. In ext4 disk checks are (I think) disabled
    by default (see

    ).

        Hello:

        W#ith my amd64 squeeze box, disk (500GB) check is never carried
        out as
        far as I can see. In contrast, with the wheezy box, a long disk
        (1000GB)
        check is carried out on my home every 30 times it is accessed,
        as well
        as on the other partitions. Both are raid mirror, with grub on both
        disk. How to deal with the squeeze box?
        thanks
        francesco pietra
