一臺文件存儲服務器單目錄下子目錄已經突破31998數限制，造成無法繼續創建子目錄，服務器系統環境為CentOS5.4 內核版本為2.6.18。解決方案只能是升級到ext4文件系統，首先到https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto查了一下資料，文中的第一句便是“Ext4 was released as a functionally complete and stable filesystem in Linux 2.6.28”。難道只能升級內核一條路了嗎？當然不是：）呵呵，下面總結本人實施/www分區從ext3升級至ext4步驟供大家參考。
一、升級前狀態
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda2 20315844 2342008 16925196 13% / /dev/sda5 129863460 192192 122968152 1% /www /dev/sda1 194442 17798 166605 10% /boot tmpfs 1029680 0 1029680 0% /dev/shm
無任何信息返回，說明/dev/sda5的ext4特征沒有激活
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda5 | grep extent [root@USER-SERVER ~]#
安裝所需包
源碼安裝：
wget http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs-1.41.12.tar.gz tar zxvf e2fsprogs-1.41.12.tar.gz; cd e2fsprogs-1.41.12 ./configure make;make install
RPM安裝：
yum -y install e2fsprogs
二、制作引導鏡像
查找并加載相應的模塊，如只需ext4支持，可將–with=ext3去掉
[root@USER-SERVER boot]# mv /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img.old [root@USER-SERVER boot]# mkinitrd -v --with=ext4 --with=ext3 /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname -r` Creating

[root@USER-SERVER ~]# reboot
三、格式轉換
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# umount /dev/sda5
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# tune2fs -O has_journal,extents,huge_file,flex_bg,uninit_bg,dir_nlink,extra_isize /dev/sda5
tune2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010) Please run e2fsck on the filesystem.
四、修改轉換文件系統錯誤并掛載
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# e2fsck -fDC0 /dev/sda5 -y
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# mount -t ext4 /dev/sda5 /www
五、修改文件系統信息(重要！否則重啟后會還原為ext3)
將
LABEL=/www /www ext3 defaults 1 2
修改為
LABEL=/www /www ext4 defaults 1 2
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# vi /etc/fstab
oot@USER-SERVER ~]# vi /etc/fstab LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/www /www ext4 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 LABEL=SWAP-sda3 swap swap defaults 0 0
六、升級后狀態
ext4的特征全激活了：）
#[root@USER-SERVER ~]# tune2fs -l /dev/sda5 | grep extent
Filesystem features: has_journal resize_inode dir_index filetype needs_recovery extent flex_bg sparse_super large_file huge_file uninit_bg dir_nlink extra_isize
[root@USER-SERVER ~]# df -T
