Question 2

Explain what a journaling file system is, and detail the benefits of using such a filesystem.

Accepted Answer

A journaling filesystem keeps track of the information written to the hard disk in a journal. If you copy a file on the hard disk from one directory to another, that file must pass into physical memory and then be written to the new location on the hard disk. If the power to the computer is turned off during this process, information might not be transmitted as expected and data might be lost or corrupted. With a journaling filesystem, each step required to copy the file to the new location is first written to a journal; this means the system can retrace the steps the system took prior to a power outage and complete the file copy.
