Maybe I should try XFS? I've heard of people running this for 80+ days and no downtime. I really would like to get past 8 days.

So, is possible for qlogic driver to be doing naughty things with bufferheads? or is it more likely in the fs?
Anyone out there running a reasonably busy fileserver with qlogic FC HBA and using ext3 or XFS with quotas? What kernel/qlogic driver combo?
