It should already be in the distribution. Type "rpm -qa|grep jfsutils" and
you should get an answer like this:
Yogi> rpm -qa|grep jfs
jfsutils-1.0.17-6

JFS is a standard part of the kernel. The "utils" package contains all you need for for checking it, making it and alike. Here is contents of the
standard distribution on RH-9:

/sbin/extendfs
/sbin/fsck.jfs
/sbin/logdump
/sbin/logredo

Can you please check that you have it? I'm very eager to learn, because that's
precisely the problem I reported to oracle with 10g. The result is bug# 3446411
(public) and I'm in the process of disembowelling my existing RH-9 box and
turning it into ES 3.0, because oracle told me that the ES 3.0 kernel may contain
the necessary ingredients to make it work.
