File System Issues
The following are known issues that are specific to file systems that are supported on UEK R5U5.
ext4: Frequent repeated system shutdowns can cause file system corruption
If a system using ext4
is repeatedly and
frequently shut down, the file system may be corrupted. This
issue is considered to be a corner-case due to the difficulty
required to replicate. The issue exists in upstream code and
proposed patches are currently under review. (Bug ID 27547113)
xfs: xfs_repair fails to repair the corrupted link counts
If an xfs
file system is repaired by using
the xfs_repair command, and there are invalid
inode counts, the utility may fail to repair the corrupted link
counts and return errors while verifying the link counts. The
issue is currently under investigation, but appears to be
related to the xfsprogs-4.15-1
package that
is released with UEK R5. The issue might not appear when using
the earlier xfsprogs-4.5.0-18.0.1
package
version, which available in the ol7_latest
yum repository. (Bug ID 28070680)
