[PATCH 37/54] tune2fs: optionally create undo file

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

 



Provide the user with an option to create an undo file so that they
can roll back a failed tuning operation.  Previously, one would be
created for inode resize if a bunch of (undocumented) conditions were
met.

v2: Enable re-opening of undo files.

+Before overwriting a file system block, write the old contents of the block to
+an undo file.  This undo file can be used with e2undo(8) to restore the old
+contents of the file system should something go wrong.  If the empty string is
+passed as the undo_file argument, the undo file will be written to a file named
+tune2fs-\fIdevice\fR.e2undo in the directory specified via the
+\fIE2FSPROGS_UNDO_DIR\fR environment variable.
+
+WARNING: The undo file cannot be used to recover from a power or system crash.
