It could be possible to take a leaf out of the cicada's book and set the time / mount count to primes (7/31 maybe?) to help things along - and I don't know if you keep stats on how often users reboot their VMs (you'd hope more than once a year) but if so setting the time to some point in the 60-70% percentile or something would improve things without getting rid of the checking altogether. You could always mail customers directly and have them deliberately turn it back on if they want it, but I would imagine people will care much more after the fs goes wrong and they remember checking was off at some point a year or so from now ;) Cheers Alex. -- This message was scanned by Better Hosted and is believed to be clean. http://www.betterhosted.com
