Centos7 XFS Configuration

XFS is a file system with high scalability and high performance. It is also the default file system of rhel7/centos7.
XFS supports metadata journaling, which enables faster recovery from crash.
It also supports fragment and resizing during mounting and activity.
Through latency allocation, XFS has won many opportunities to optimize write performance.
Xfsdump and xfsrestore tools can be used to back up and restore the XFS file system,
Xfsdump can be used at the dump level to complete Incremental backup, and files can be excluded through size, subtree, and inode flags.
User, group, and project quotas are also supported.

The following describes how to create an XFS file system, allocate quotas, and resize it:
