<p>&nbsp; [.. and so on about journal.dat ..]
<p>&nbsp; I was under the impression that journal.dat is only intended
to get a
<br>&nbsp; somehow running system. I mean, what you really want is: have
the journal
<br>&nbsp; on a separate partition with no filesystem at all. Best of all
on a
<br>&nbsp; seperate disk (controller, maybe). And you might want to have
one journal
<br>&nbsp; only for all filesystems.
<p>I must disagree on that. If your disk where you've put the journal breaks
<br>then you have a long night ahead restoring backups.
<br>I can only refer to Aix which has a journal log for every disk,
<br>one journal / disk&nbsp; and all filesystems within.
<br>That's what i think is right way of implementation.
<br>I wonder..
<br>Stephen whatif i remove my journal.dat file what happens then ?
<br>Does it rebuilds the log or does it try to restore the filesystem by
replaying the empty journal log ?,
<br>or does it rebuilds the journal file?
