LinuxQuestions.org - tune2fs -c 4 -C 3

Dear all,

I am preparing for the LPI exam 201 and trying some commands related to objective 203.2 Maintenance of Linux filesystems.
Since I don't have any ext2 filesystems on my notebook, I created one myself:

Code:

rechner:~ # dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/ext2fs bs=512 count=512000

rechner:~ # losetup /dev/loop0 /root/ext2fs

rechner:~ # mkfs -t ext2 /dev/loop0

rechner:~ # mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt

Code:

rechner:~ # tune2fs -c 4 -C 3 /dev/loop0

tune2fs 1.36 (05-Feb-2005)

Setting maximal mount count to 4

Setting current mount count to 3

Code:

rechner:~ # dumpe2fs /dev/loop0 | grep count

dumpe2fs 1.36 (05-Feb-2005)

Inode count:              64000

Block count:              256000

Reserved block count:    12800

Mount count:              3

Maximum mount count:      4

Code:

rechner:~/lvm # umount /mnt/

rechner:~/lvm # mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt/



rechner:~/lvm # dumpe2fs /dev/loop0 | grep count

dumpe2fs 1.36 (05-Feb-2005)

Inode count:              64000

Block count:              256000

Reserved block count:    12800

Mount count:              4

Maximum mount count:      4

My question:
Shouldn't the system be checked now that the max count is reached?
What is wrong?

Regards, Carsten
