According to Red Hat's press release yesterday, I'd say if you had had any concerns, they should be gone now : <a href="http://press.redhat.com/2010/04/21/red-hat-enterprise-linux-6-beta-available-today-for-public-download/">http://press.redhat.com/2010/04/21/red-hat-enterprise-linux-6-beta-available-today-for-public-download/</a><br>
<br>XFS ad EXT4 coming with RHEL6 by default.<br><br>WMM<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Apr 21, 2010 at 21:34, Doug McNash <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dmcnash@charter.net">dmcnash@charter.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I'm consulting at a company that wants to turn their Linux based NAS in to a reliable product. They initially chose XFS because they were under the impression that it was high performance but what they got was something of questionable reliability. I have identified and patched several serious bugs (2.6.29) and I have a feeling there are more unidentified ones out there. Furthermore, xfs_check craps out of memory every time so we have to do an xfs_repair at boot and it takes forever. But today we got into a situation where xfs_repair can't repair the disk (a raid5 array btw).<br>
<br>
Does anyone out there use xfs? How about a suggestion for a stable replacement.<br>
