That's an interesting question. This server has been through a
goodly few incarnations, over many years. Once upon a time it
was running 3.4 or there abouts. I thought that I had re-built
it from scratch the last time (to 5.3), which presumably would
have given me UFS2, but the possibility exists...
How would I be able to tell? tunefs -p lists ACLs and MAC
multlabel and soft updates, but of those only soft updates is
enabled, so I don't know if that is conclusive. Did UFS2 give
us anything beyond ACLs and largeness? bsdlabel, mount and df
don't seem to give any particular indication...
Cheers,
