== Installation ==<br />
<br />
Included with CentOS Extras:<br />
$ yum install xfsprogs xfsdump kmod-xfs<br />
<br />
== Relabel ==<br />
<br />
Relabel XFS file system:<br />
#xfs_admin -L [NEWLABEL] [DEVICE]<br />
xfs_admin -L /newlabel /dev/sdb1<br />
<br />
== Repair ==<br />
<br />
fsck for xfs:<br />
: "XFS is a journaling filesystem and performs recovery at mount(8) time if necessary" (fsck.xfs)<br />
: "If you wish to check the consistency of an XFS filesystem, or repair a damaged or corrupt XFS filesystem, see xfs_check and xfs_repair."<br />
<br />
If you cannot mount an XFS file system, you can use the xfs_check command to check its consistency: [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E37355/html/ol_repair_xfs.html]<br />
umount /dev/md4<br />
xfs_check /dev/md4<br />
<br />
If you can mount the file system and you do not have a suitable backup, you can use xfsdump to attempt to back up the existing file system data [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E37355/html/ol_repair_xfs.html]<br />
xfsdump /dev/md4<br />
<br />
You can use the xfs_repair command to attempt to repair an XFS file system specified by its device file. [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E37355/html/ol_repair_xfs.html]<br />
