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":

[...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.

Thank you,
