What are the default force checks for lvm2?

I've looked around in google and the forums, and it looks file systems are normally checked around every 30 mounts. I notice that my var logical volume is rechecked once in a while, but I've never seen root or home get force checked. Are these normal Maximum mount counts and Check intervals?

[gene@Mobile-PC ~]$ sudo tune2fs -l /dev/vg_mobilepc/lv_home | grep 'Mount count\|Maximum mount count\|Last checked\|Check interval'
Mount count:              274
Maximum mount count:      -1
Last checked:             Fri Feb  5 11:09:44 2010
Check interval:           0 (<none>)
[gene@Mobile-PC ~]$ sudo tune2fs -l /dev/vg_mobilepc/lv_root | grep 'Mount count\|Maximum mount count\|Last checked\|Check interval'
Mount count:              273
Maximum mount count:      -1
Last checked:             Fri Feb  5 10:59:12 2010
Check interval:           0 (<none>)
[gene@Mobile-PC ~]$ sudo tune2fs -l /dev/vg_mobilepc/lv_var | grep 'Mount count\|Maximum mount count\|Last checked\|Check interval'
Mount count:              21
Maximum mount count:      21
Last checked:             Fri Apr 30 16:26:35 2010
Check interval:           15552000 (6 months)

As far as I know, I've never changed them.

Thanks,

When the maximum mount count is set to -1, it is never counter checked. Use tune2fs -c <count> to set how many times you want it to mount before checking.

Thanks JEO, I did that as soon as I saw it was turned off for root and home. I guess my real question is, how did it get turned off for root and home in the first place? I assumed the system was installed with all three volumes having the same settings. Is that a mistaken assumption? The only thing I've done to root and home is expand them both with LVM, but I doubt that turned off boot fsck.

I'd guess that it is a parameter that is passed to mkfs by anaconda. When a parameter is not passed the count seems to be random around 20-40. You could search bugzilla for an anaconda bug. I bet they will end up saying that it is a feature though.
