We've got a 110 TB xfs system in production based on a logical volume
striped over 9 boxes of SATA disk, works like a charm with great
throughput as we stripe over 3 controllers :-)
Only whoopsie in 18+ months was when we recently added 3 more disk
boxes and I grew the filesystem. First attempt xfs_grow only added a
fraction of the available space. Second attempt gave a kernel panic.
Reboot and everything was fine with all space available.
Lesson learned: don't use xfs_grow unless you're in the general
vicinity of the server ;-)
regards,
Bent
