Hi, Now that I better know XFS, I don't want to use it anymore. So I'm migrating all my servers from XFS to JFS. I decided start with the backup drives (removable 1TB hot swap HDDs used like tape drives). Backup uses rdiff-backup and rsync. However, with JFS, I'm getting tons of warning that I didn't get with XFS :
[...clip 100 pages of warning...] rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S01mountkernfs.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S02hostname.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S06keyboard-setup": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S08loopback": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S10udev": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S11mountdevsubfs.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S13pcmciautils": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S15module-init-tools": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S17procps.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S20checkroot.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S22mtab.sh": Function not implemented (38) rsync: failed to set times on "/mnt/backup/etc/rcS.d/S25mdadm-raid": Function not implemented (38) [...clip 10 pages of warning...] It seems the system call to set the modification time on symbolic links is not implemented ? Rsync has the -O option to remove such warning for directories (useful with NFS / samba), but not for symlinks. Is this JFS fault ? I'm using linux with kernel 2.6.22.
