Complete Usage
gfs_jadd [Options] {MountPoint | Device} [MountPoint | Device]
MountPoint
Specifies the directory where the GFS file system is mounted.
Device
Specifies the device node of the file system.
Table 4.4, “GFS-specific Options Available When Adding Journals” describes the GFS-specific
options that can be used when adding journals to a GFS file system.
Flag Parameter Description
-h
Help. Displays short usage message.
-J MegaBytes
Specifies the size of the new journals in megabytes.
Default journal size is 128 megabytes. The minimum
size is 32 megabytes. To add journals of different
sizes to the file system, the
gfs_jadd
command
must be run for each size journal. The size specified
is rounded down so that it is a multiple of the
journal-segment size that was specified when the file
system was created.
-j Number
Specifies the number of new journals to be added by
the
gfs_jadd
command. The default value is 1.
-T
Test. Do all calculations, but do not write any data to
the disk and do not add journals to the file system.
Enabling this flag helps discover what the
gfs_jadd
command would have done if it were run without this
flag. Using the
-v
flag with the
-T
flag turns up the
verbosity level to display more information.
-q
Quiet. Turns down the verbosity level.
-V
Displays command version information.
