Concerning "tune2fs" Parameters
by kevinbenko from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4X1CP)
About 2-3 years ago, I replaced a drive. It is a backup drive, and every week, I to a full shutdown and
"fsck -yvfD"
on all of my drives, because REASONS!
However, this newest drive takes much longer to do the fsck, with pass 1 being the problem. It is a direct backup of yet another drive.
QUESTION:
I did some comparisons between the two drives, and I see some differences
under "Filesystem features" the originating drive has "64bit" and "metedata_csum" whereas the backup drive does not have these features.
Everything else (well... except unimportant things) seems to be the same.
Could these two differences be the source of my difficulty?
AND... how can I add these features into the backup drive?
Thank you for any help that you may give, and have a Merry Christmas and have a good day!
