RedHat/CentOS ext4无法格式化大分区问题解决
发布者： 发布时间：2014-12-25来源：
一般情况下，XFS出现丢数据的情况为海量小文件IO场景。在该场景下，inode占用教大。
通过上文的方式进行格式化，inode数量较小。通过大量测试，可以使用如下方法提升mkfs.ext4后文件系统性能。
方法主要内容：在/etc/mke2fs.conf文件，ext4配置中去开启64位功能。
[root@node21 ~]# cat /etc/mke2fs.conf
[defaults]
base_features = sparse_super,filetype,resize_inode,dir_index,ext_attr
blocksize = 4096
inode_size = 256
inode_ratio = 16384
[fs_types]
ext3 = {
features = has_journal
}
ext4 = {
features = has_journal,extent,huge_file,flex_bg,uninit_bg,dir_nlink,extra_isize
auto_64-bit_support = 1 ###新增加行，告诉系统使用64位方式进行格式化。避免mkfs.ext4直接报错。
inode_size = 256
}
ext4dev = {
features = has_journal,extent,huge_file,flex_bg,uninit_bg,dir_nlink,extra_isize
inode_size = 256
options = test_fs=1
}
small = {
blocksize = 1024
inode_size = 128
inode_ratio = 4096
}
floppy = {
blocksize = 1024
inode_size = 128
inode_ratio = 8192
}
news = {
inode_ratio = 4096
}
largefile = {
inode_ratio = 1048576
blocksize = -1
}
largefile4 = {
inode_ratio = 4194304
blocksize = -1
}
hurd = {
blocksize = 4096
inode_size = 128
}

红帽/CentOS 6.5的e2fsprogs版本为1.41.12较低，无法创建16TB以上的文件系统。
下载最新的e2fsprogs，编译安装

常见故障表现：
[root@localhost ~]# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
