Looking for advice on creating XFS on a large (to me) RAID

Hi All,

I'm about to create a XFS file system on a MD RAID6 made up of 12 3T
drives.

This is the command line that I was planning to use:

# mkfs.xfs  -l lazy-count=1 -s size=4096 -N /dev/md7
         =                       sectsz=4096  attr=2, projid32bit=0
data     =                       bsize=4096   blocks=7320776704,imaxpct=5
         =                       sunit=128    swidth=1280 blks
naming   =version 2              bsize=4096   ascii-ci=0
log      =internal log           bsize=4096   blocks=521728, version=2
         =                       sectsz=4096  sunit=1 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none                   extsz=4096   blocks=0, rtextents=0


This is the MD examine for one of the drives:
Nitrogen:~# mdadm -E /dev/sda2
/dev/sda2:
          Magic : a92b4efc
        Version : 1.2

         Events : 11029

         Layout : left-symmetric
     Chunk Size : 512K

   Device Role : Active device 0
   Array State : AAAAAAAAAAAA ('A' == active, '.' == missing)

# mkfs.xfs -V
mkfs.xfs version 3.1.4

System is Debian Squeeze with self compiled 3.0.8 kernel (64bit)

Should I change any default parameters to mkfs.xfs

If I didn't provide any important info let me know.

Thanks in advance,
K
