what filesystem are you using ? quick google says NOT to try and defrag ext3.. tool seems out of date. here is an idea from a post... I've actually looked at this before, and found a few solutions, but quickly concluded that the programs in question (which had to be run offline) seemed a little too unmaintained and unreliable to test out on my partition. The best answer I've gotten from anyone so far is that yes, there is a program that can do this, and that program is tar. =) Of course, you'd need someplace to back everything up to. Then you can just untar everything onto a clean partition, possibly with these new patches in place in the kernel you use during the restore, but since tar is probably doing this linearly anyway, I doubt it would make much difference. Long story short, most people I've talked to have never had any problems with fragmented ext[23] filesystems. Sorry. but if your using JFS http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/pseries/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.aix.doc/cmds/aixcmds2/defragfs.htm guessing you need the jfs tools -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
