The actual output of xfs_metadump should be quite small even for a multiterabyte filesystem. In 2011 I did a metadump of an 11TB filesystem, and the result was a 7GB file. You might not want to post that to a mailing list, of course, but it should still be easier to schlepp around if needed. --keith -- kkeller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
