journaled file system

   Also found in: Acronyms, Wikipedia 0.20 sec.

A file system that contains its own backup and recovery capability. Before indexes on disk are updated, the information about the changes is recorded in a log. If a power or other system failure corrupts the indexes as they are being rewritten, the operating system can use the log to repair them when the system is restarted.
