XFS file systems can be created with mkfs on any EVMS or compatibility volume that does not already have a file system. The following options are available for creating XFS file systems:
- vollabel
Specify a volume label for the file system. The default is none.
- journalvol
Specify the volume to use for an external journal. The default is none.
- logsize
Specify the inline log size (in MB). This option is only available if the journalvol option is not set. The default is 4 MB; the allowed range is 2 to 256 MB.
