Where do you set data=anything? I found a few papers on tuning ext3. These papers talk about setting the journaling mode, but don't tell you how to do this.

The second paragraph starting on the second line says that to journal metadata but not file data use data=ordered or data=writeback, This contradicts the first paragraph that says that data=ordered journals data. Which is correct?
All this is very confusing, is it not? Any clarification would be appreciated.
The mount man page says that data=ordered is the default.
That's the one I'd truse unless you change the options in /etc/fstab or
when you mount the filesystem.
-ThomasThanks. It is strange that the man page does a better job explaining the differences between the three typed of ext3 journalling than the white paper does. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200
