Hi,

I have below queries on XFS log device as,

1. After creating a XFS filesystem with an external log device
(journal), is there a way to mount the filesystem if I lose the
external log device or a way to recover files?

You can use some other device to hold the log. You could use a ramdisk,
a loop device pointing to some file, etc. No problem as long as you
unmounted the filesystem properly.

2. Is there a way to convert an existing XFS filesystem which has
internal log to external log and vice versa.

Apparently no. xfs_growfs should be able to do it, but the man page
states that this function is not implemented.
