FSADM process showing eating CPU

f. halili — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 16:20:25 GMT

Hello everyone,

Running top this fsadm process showed eating up CPU. I did a ps -ef on the PID and got these details. Any thoughts?

root 12607 12606 253 06:58:18 ? 161:54 fsadm -e -E -d -D -p50 -t 28800 -sv /opt/rex/src

Thanks,
f. halili

Shalom,

This is a process in progress that might take some time to finish.

Its best to let it takes its course and complete. fsadm works on file systems and interrupting it is not recommended most of the time.

This process fsadm with -e -E -d -D option will re-oragine your file system and will optimize it.

It is time consuming and depends from file system size.

A perusal of the fsadm_vxfs (fsadm for vxfs file systems) man page will yield information about the options used here.

Please share full commands of "fsadm -e -E -d ..." that are working/samples you have used before.
