Abstract
Relocating a file system journal within a partitioned memory space is described. In one embodiment, a method, which involves relocating an active file system journal, includes writing the changes for relocating the metadata structures into the new file system journal before the file system journal is activated so that journaling remains active during relocation and the corresponding file system remains consistent throughout the relocation.
