Hello
Since 2.4.20, we have problems with ext3. Machine is 2xPentium III (1GHz),
2GB RAM, 1GB swap. RH 8.0 (glibc-2.3.1-21), gcc (GCC) 3.2 20020903
We have a lot of users:
oceanic:~# wc -l /etc/passwd
6694 /etc/passwd
connected via SAMBA (2.2.7) from 200-300 Windows-XX workstations
Partition with ext3 looks like this:
oceanic:~# mount |grep ext3
/dev/sdb5 on /home1 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdb6 on /home2 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdc5 on /home3 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdc6 on /home4 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdc7 on /home5 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdc8 on /home6 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdb7 on /home7 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdb8 on /home8 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdd5 on /home9 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdd6 on /homea type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdd7 on /homeb type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sdd8 on /homec type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,usrquota)
/dev/sda7 on /opt/windows type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
My question is:
Is it a problem with ext3 or problems with disk (hardware problem) or
something else?
Oops looks like this:
