Original topic: tidb 4.0.13版本是否适合使用xfs文件系统

| username: xxxxxxxx

This document mentions that it is recommended to use the ext4 file system. There are also posts in the forum saying that xfs may have a risk of data loss.

However, the standardized configuration of new machines is now uniformly xfs. I would like to inquire whether the 4.0.13 version of TiDB can use the xfs file system.

Support for XFS is available, and it can be deployed and used normally. However, for production environments, safety should be the priority, so it is recommended to use ext4.

It’s been 2 years, still not supported. Hope it gets upgraded soon.

CentOS 7 defaults to XFS. Check your system version; it’s better to choose version 5.3 or later for newly deployed TiDB.
