The Power-Safe filesystem, supported by the fs-qnx6.so shared object, is a reliable disk filesystem that can withstand power failures without losing or corrupting data.
It has many of the same features as the QNX 4 filesystem, as well as the following:
For information about the structure of this filesystem, see "Power-Safe filesystem" in the Filesystems chapter of the System Architecture guide.
To create a Power-Safe filesystem, use the mkqnx6fs utility. For example:
mkqnx6fs /dev/hd0t76
You can use the mkqnx6fs options to specify the logical blocksize, endian layout, number of logical blocks, and so on.
Once you've formatted the filesystem, simply mount it. For example:
mount -t qnx6 /dev/hd0t76 /mnt/psfs
For more information about the options for the Power-Safe filesystem, see fs-qnx6.so in the Utilities Reference.
To check the filesystem for consistency (which you aren't likely to need to do), use chkqnx6fs.
