We're got some boxen here each with a 3ware RAID controller 7x200GB disks in RAID5
configuration. They run Redhat 8 with LVM splitting the array into logical volumes. The logical
volumes have ext3 filesystems on them. I think it's kind of neat that we can use tools to manage
them that apparently were origianlly written for ext2 (tune2fs, e2fsadm, resize2fs). I have
to wonder: Is ext3 an extension to ext2 that adds the journalling in such as way that these
tools don't know the difference or do the tools handle ext2/ext3 differently, only the names
have not been changed (to protect the innocent).
