[Ocfs2-users] journal size

[Christophe Bouder]

hello,
on my system debian 64,vanilla kernel 2.6.22.3 with Ocfs2 patch set and
ocfs2 1.2.1 (testing package),
i 've tried to increase the number of slots,with tunefs.ocfs2 -n 8 ,
it's does not pass very well.
there is a problem for the journal as you can see :

echo "ls -l //" | debugfs.ocfs2 -n /dev/sdc1 |grep journal

55 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0       268435456 23-Jun-2007 21:29 journal:0000
56 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0       268435456 23-Jun-2007 21:29 journal:0001
57 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0       268435456 23-Jun-2007 21:29 journal:0002
58 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0       268435456 23-Jun-2007 21:29 journal:0003
59 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0       268435456 23-Jun-2007 21:29 journal:0004
76 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0               0 18-Aug-2007 18:11 journal:0005
77 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0               0 18-Aug-2007 18:12 journal:0006
97 -rw-r--r--   1  0   0               0 18-Aug-2007 19:02 journal:0007


i upgrade  the debian package (unstable) it's now ocfs2 1.2.3 ,
and i tried
tunefs.ocfs2 -J size=320M /dev/sdc1
tunefs.ocfs2 1.2.3
Changing journal size 268435456 to 335544320

fsck.ocfs2 -f -y /dev/sdc1 repair some things
and said it's clean.
but it's always impossible to change the size of the journal size for 5,6,7.
any chance to recover the good size for the journal without formatting ?

thank you for your help.
