Hi,
We will have to go and use SuSE (30 servers) just because ext3 filesystem
cannot be increase while the filesystem is mounted.
I
Don't understand why RedHat do not support filesystems that can do thing that
ext3 cannot do.
When is RedHat going to understand that in a production environnement (30
servers that is seems will be SuSE) we need extend filesystem
online.
IBM JS, Reiserfs and XFS Filsystems will allow user to extend their
filesystems without unmounting them (When they are in a Volume Group -
LVM).
I
would have liked to go with RedHat, but they do not give me the
choice.
They stick to ext3 (refuse to support any others filesystems) while SuSE (An
American Company now) support ext3,reiserfs,JFS and XFS.
SuSE offer 4 supported filesystems, while RedHat offer 1 (supported) filesystems
and on top off that we cannot increase them online !
RedHat will have to review their marketing technique or they will loose some
important market to SuSE, the other big American Linux
company.
