Mac OS X Server 10.2: Third-Party Disk Utilities May Turn Off Journaling

Third-party disk utilities that have not been updated to recognize journaling may turn off that feature in the course of repairing a volume.
Symptom

A volume is no longer journaled after using a third-party disk utility. The Apple Disk Utility no longer indicates the volume is journaled.


Solution

You should check with your software vendor to get a version that has been updated to work with journaled volumes. You may use Disk Utility to turn journaling back on. See technical document 107248, "Mac OS X Server 10.2: How to Journal a Volume or Repair a Journaled Volume".
