Help on journal output

Hi Folks,
may I ask for clarification on the errors, in particular ext4 and sp5100
shall I worry?

sudo journalctl -p 3 -xb

Concerning wathcdog you have to have Intelligent Platform Management Interface - Wikipedia compatible motherboard.

Otherwise you can simply blacklist appropriate kernel module

# cat << EOF > /etc/modprobe.d/sp5100_tco.conf 
blacklist sp5100_tco
EOF

About ext4 error, do you have file system check enabled in you /etc/fstab file?

thanks for reply.
it is consumer grade motherboard, no IPMI. will check blacklist option.

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a device; this may
# be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices that works even if
# disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

I assume there is no file check enabled correct?

Only 192.168.0.119 has no fsck enabled. In case you want it, last number should be equal to 2
