When journaling is turned on, a special file, called a journal (Hence "journaling".) is created to track all transactions that change data on the disk. The journal file is set up in such a way that data not yet properly written to the disk can quickly be recovered or corrected when something like a power failure occurs. | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be October 26.
