Chapter 10. File systems and storage
Review the most notable changes to file systems and storage between RHEL 9 and RHEL 10.
- Support for GFS2 file systems has been removed
- The Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) Resilient Storage Add-On will no longer be supported starting with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. This includes the GFS2 file system, which is also no longer supported. The RHEL Resilient Storage Add-On will continue to be supported with earlier versions of RHEL (7, 8, 9) and throughout their respective maintenance support lifecycles.
- The
dm-vdomodule has been added to the kernel -
With this update, the
kmod-kvdomodule has been replaced with thedm-vdomodule in the RHEL 10 kernel. In addition, the Virtual Data Optimizer (VDO)sysfsparameters have been removed. - The VDO
sysfsparameters have been removed The Virtual Data Optimizer (VDO)
sysfsparameters have been removed. Except forlog_level, all module-levelsysfsparameters for thekvdomodule are removed. For individualdm-vdotargets, allsysfsparameters specific to VDO are also removed. There is no change for the parameters that are common to all DM targets. Configuration values fordm-vdotargets that are currently set by updating the removed module-level parameters, can no longer be changed.Statistics and configuration values for
dm-vdotargets are no longer be accessible throughsysfs. But these values are still accessible by usingdmsetup message stats,dmsetup status, anddmsetup tabledmsetup commands.- The
md-faultyandmd-multipathmodules have been removed -
In RHEL 10, the
md-faultyandmd-multipathMD RAID kernel modules are no longer available. - The
nvme_core.multipathparameter has been removed -
In RHEL 10, the use of DM multipath with NVMe devices over RDMA and FC is no longer supported. As a consequence, the
nvme_core.multipathparameter has been removed, the native NVMe multipath is enabled by default, and it can no longer be disabled. Bug fixes and support for using DM multipath with NVMe devices over RDMA and FC are provided only through the end of the RHEL 9 lifecycle. Note that DM multipath was never supported with NVMe over TCP in any version of RHEL. - Support for the deprecated XFS V4 on-disk format is removed
Support for the XFS V4 on-disk format has been removed in RHEL 10 due to lack of Y2038 timestamp support, security weaknesses, and upstream deprecation and planned removal. The newer V5 on-disk format has been
mkfs.xfsby default since early RHEL 7.3.XFS file systems created before this version cannot be mounted on RHEL 10 systems. To continue using data stored on older V4 format XFS file systems, back up the data on the old file system, use
mkfs.xfsto create a new V5 file system, and restore the backed up data.mkfs.xfsrequires a minimum XFS file system size of 300 MB-
Starting from RHEL 10, the minimum supported size for an XFS file system is 300 MB. The
mkfs.xfscommand prevents you from creating a file system smaller than this limit to avoid performance and redundancy issues. For more information on the changes made to themkfs.xfsutility, see Notable changes to command line tools.
