What is XFS?
XFS is a high-performance journaling file system developed by SGI and widely used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS, Rocky Linux, and other enterprise Linux distributions. It is designed for scalability and speed, supporting large files and parallel I/O operations. Due to its complexity, recovering data from XFS requires advanced tools and techniques—especially in cases involving metadata loss or RAID structures.
Common XFS Data Loss Scenarios
- Accidental deletion of files or folders
- Corrupted superblock or file system header
- XFS partition showing as RAW or unmountable
- RAID failure in XFS-configured storage arrays
- Power failure or kernel panic leading to journal corruption
- File system inconsistencies after failed xfs_repair
Basic Troubleshooting Tips for XFS
- Never run
xfs_repair
on a mounted volume. Always unmount first to avoid further corruption. - Attempt a non-destructive check:
xfs_check /dev/sdX
- For mount errors, try:
mount -o ro,norecovery /dev/sdX /mnt
- Use LVM snapshots before attempting recovery on logical volumes
- Do not reformat or use newfs.xfs—it destroys all recovery potential
- If data is critical, disconnect the drive immediately and seek professional help
