How to determine FS is in consistent state.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi all...

I intend to write a snapshot module for Ext2/3 file-systems.
For that i need to make sure that FS is in consistent state before taking snapshot.


For ex. in case of UFS, the superblock has a fs_clean flag which is set to be FSSTABLE to tell that its in consistent state. (otherwise its set to FSACTIVE)

I m not able to find any such information for Ext2/Ext3.

Pls, let me know if you have any clue/info on this aspect.

Thanks & Regards,
