There is a bug that prevents enabling journaling on a mounted filesystem.
So for now you can't enable it on /. I see that you have a large / volume
but in general I would also suggest people not enable suj on / anyway as
it's typically not very large. I only run it on my /usr and /home
filesystems.
I will send a mail out when I figure out why tunefs can't enable suj on /
while it is mounted read-only.
Jeff -
One thing which surprised me was that I couldn't reuse the existing
.sujournal files on my disks. I did notice that there are now more
flags set on them. Was that the reason? Or were you just being
careful?
There were a few iterations of the code to create and discover the actual
journal inode. I may have introduced an incompatibility when making fsck
more careful about what it treats as a journal. If it were to attempt to
apply changes from a garbage file it could corrupt your filesystem.
Thanks,
Jeff
