Open Source Linux File Systems - Page 5

github: https://github.com/ThomasCX/defragfs The defragfs project aims on file-system/directory defragmentation of the Linux operating system, it is (currently) file-system independent and only CLI, hope further development could bring the GUI and better functionality.

ClusterNFS allows diskless clients to share a single root filesystem by matching "interpreted" file names of the form "/path/filename$$KEY=value$$" with fallback to the original filename. Keys include HOSTNAME, IP, UID, GID, and CLIENT (always matches

IngestList is a java based tool to perform automated batch identification of file formats and to characterise some important properties. It is designed to meet the fundamental requirement of any digital repository.

DirSize is a directory reporting tool. It recursively scans the provided (or current) directory, and reports the number of files and director sizes of each subdirectory present. It also defaults to sorting by by directory size, but there are other options. One of the interesting things about DirSize is it shows a visual representation of the file sizes of counts. I call this a SizeMap or FilesMap and it's the area to the right of the output. If you sort by size (default or -ss) or directories (-sd) is will show the SizeMap. If sorted by file counts (-sf) the map will change to show a visual representation of the number of files per subdirectory, sorted from high to low. This is a single executable JAR file. While you will need Java installed, there is no need to install this program. Just download the JAR file, please it somewhere convenient, and execute it from the command line: java -jar dirsize.jar See https://github.com/frossm/dirsize for details

The Flexible Filesystem Benchmark (FFSB) is a cross-platform filesystem performance measurement tool. It uses customizable profiles to measure of different workloads, and it supports multiple groups of threads across multiple filesystems.

Python FAM provides a Python module to use the File Alteration Monitor (http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam) in Python.

Policy engine and reporting tool for large file systems. It maintains a replicate of filesystem medatada in a database that can be queried at will. It makes it possible to schedule mass action on filesystem entries by defining attribute-based policies, provides fast 'find' and 'du' enhanced clones, gives to administrators an overall view of filesystem contents through its web UI and command line tools. It supports any POSIX filesystem and implements advanced features for Lustre filesystems (list/purge files per OST or pool, read MDT changelogs...)

kcd is a directory change utility similar to NCD. It helps you navigate the directory tree. You can also supply part of the desired directory name directly in the command line and let kcd find it for you.

xcruiser aims to provide 3D VR-like interface to UN*X filesystem. It displays directories as galaxies, files as planets (of various properties depending on its attributes) and symlinks as wormholes. You can fly through cyberspace created from these.

UFFS: Ultra-low-cost Flash File System, designed for NAND flash working in embedded system. UFFS typically consumes less then 200K ram for 1Gb(page 512)/4Gb(page 2K) NAND flash. It supports direct flash interface, works with or without OS.

Advanced multi layered unification filesystem. Once aufs was entirely re-designed and re-implemented Unionfs which is originally developed by Erez Zadok and his team. Enhancing with many original ideas, it becomes totally different software while keeping the basic features.

Xorin is a secure drive erase program that provides the perfect solution to anyone who wants to secure their private data before selling or utilization their PC or drive storage. Xorin is also good in all situations where you want to ensure that deleted data stays deleted and that it can never be recovered. Xorin operates from its own Linux-based bootable environment, Linux or Windows operation system. Xorin supports all popular security methods and standards including DoD 5220.22-M. You can erase your drives unlimited times. In our free version we do not limit quantity of erasing. Also there is no program limitation for parallel drive quantity you want erase.

An implementation of the Ext2 (Linux) filesystem for Mac OS X.

How to Change the Last Modified Date, Creation Date, and Last Accessed Date for Files and Folders ?

MetFS is a filesystem in userspace that is FUSE based, encrypted, dynamic sized (increase when new data added, decrease when data removed), single file when it's unmounted and very fast. MetFS 's proved to be running on Linux and FreeBSD.

The ucsd-psystem-fs package is a collection of tools for manipulating and mounting UCSD p-System disk images.

This is the final release of truecrypt (7.1a) ported to use wxGTK3 instead of 2.8. None of the underlying code has changed, instead the compile errors due to modern distros using and updated version of wxGTK have been resolved (for now).

A simple utility to split a concatenated vCard format file into separate files (IETF RFC 2426 - vCard MIME Directory Profile). It splits on the BEGIN:VCARD and END:VCARD tags. It was created to help import a Lotus Organizer export file into Palm Desktop

Kosmos distributed file system provides high performance combined with availability and reliability. It is intended to be used as the backend storage infrastructure for data intensive apps such as, search engines, data mining, grid computing etc.

File Tools is a convenience tool to manager different file system(based on Eclipse RCP). It supports mass rename, files/directories compare, advanced search/replace, directories synchronization, cross-platform, etc. Currently, this project is under developing, any idea is welcome.

K Disk archiver (KDar) is a KDE GUI-based backup and archiving program. Use it to prepare your data for storage on CD-Rs, jazz drives, floppies, even DVDs. KDar uses the dar library by Denis Corbin. Features include compression and archive splitting.

NAND flash utilities is a set of utilities for accessing NAND flash through an IDE interface. These utilties work with the Linux MTD subsystem to allow developing, testing, and experimenting of NAND flash on a PC.

QFSViewer is a small tool for developers to view the contents of various file system raw image files, which does not rely on the operating system mounting, does not require permission requests, and is completed entirely within the software application. Based on this feature, the tool can easily run on windows/linux/macos.

This project has moved to Savannah. http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fileschanged/ This project page will disappear on June 14, 2008.
