Can I run JFS2 (enhanced journaled file system) on the 32-bit kernel?
JFS2 on the 32-bit kernel is supported on AIX 5.2, though not recommended. Even though JFS2 provides significant scalability improvements over JFS, its full potential will only be realized with the 64-bit kernel. The 64-bit kernel provides a better environment for running JFS2 because the 32-bit kernel has a much more limited scaling potential. The combination of 64-bit kernel and JFS2 is designed to perform much better than any other combination of file system and kernel with respect to file system performance. It is recommended that JFS be used with a 32-bit kernel.
