Hello,
I am disabling forced e2fsck on ext3 file systems everywhere. As
to reserved blocks percentage, 5% is the default so there is no need to
specify this option if you want this setting. I would suggest lowering
this value on big file systems (on one TB FS you get 50 GB less this
way... which is not negligible) - you always have to ask yourself "What
will happen if the space on this file system runs out?". For example on
/var you would use slightly more reserved blocks and on /home you could
disable the feature entirely.
Regards,
Daniel

Hi Red Hat Users
We modify the following ext3 file system parameters:
- - reserved-blocks-percentage = 5%
- - never e2fsck at x mount-counts
Whats the risk associated with this settings? Is this a good idea?
cheers
Simon
