AFAICT the vxfs support is mainly aimed at dealing with existing vxfs
partitions used by foreign operating systems.

If you're looking for a journalling filesystem under Linux, your choices are
- ReiserFS
- XFS
- JFS
- Ext3

A little googling should turn up lots of useful information (including,
IIRC, an IBM developerworks paper comparing the first three).
