I have two questions really regarding an NFS server with a large filesystem. Right now I'm using FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE as an NFS server. I used the ccd tool to create a software RAID, but need more disk space, so I ordered a hardware RAID unit that will have about 1TB for disk storage. My question is, are there any file systems that freebsd supports that is stable and can support over a TB of data? Also, I'm wondering if there are any journaling filesystems out there for FreeBSD. I know Linux has a few, and I'm wondering if freebsd will support any of those (ReiserFS, ext3, or JFS)? I don't want to switch to Linux because NFS under linux doesn't seem to be near as good as it is with FreeBSD. And if it wasn't a journaling file systems, seems that, in the event of a crash that fscking it would take forever. Thanks, Jason __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
