So I tried XFS last night and it cut my copy times down substantially, so I need someone to verify that XFS in centos 5.4 has barriers enabled by default, I am not using LVM just the old fashion partitions and mount points. It appears that reading from the centos wiki that xfs is enabled in the kernel due to upstream vendor doing so for the first timeI loaded up xfsprogs and xfsdump but it was not clear about the barrier details....
Thanks...in advance. :) On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 9:26 AM, Brent L.
