Hi I am new to linux and clustering, but I am trying to setup ocfs2 and rac10g on fedora 3 (Linux linux2 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.orafw1smp #1 SMP Mon Mar 7 22:29:31 PST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) have a dell 4700 and dell 3000 both with 1 GB RAM and a 250G maxtor share drive...( build your own 10grac ..from technet.oracle.com) ======================# rpm -qa|grep -i ocfs2 ocfs2-2.6.9-5.0.5.EL-0.99.9-1 ocfs2-tools-0.99.8-1 ocfs2console-0.99.8-1 # rpm -qa|grep -i kernel kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.orafw1 kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3 kernel-devel-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.orafw1 kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.49_FC3 kernel-2.6.9-1.667 kernel-doc-2.6.11-1.27_FC3 kernel-smp-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.orafw1 I installed the ocfs2 tools,console. However two things: ======================1.when i ran ocfs2console as per the doc, it did not allow me to configure any cluster definition. no /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf file existed. no /etc/ocfs2 existed. so i created the /etdc/ocfs2/cluster.conf file manually # cat /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf cluster: node_count = 2 name = CLUSTER1 node: ip_port = 7777 ip_address = 192.168.2.10 number = 0 name = int-linux1 cluster = CLUSTER1 node: ip_port = 7777 ip_address = 192.168.2.20 number = 1 name = int-linux2 cluster = CLUSTER1 2. the load for o2cb failed. ==========================# /etc/init.d/o2cb configure Configuring the O2CB driver. This will configure the on-boot properties of the O2CB driver. The following questions will determine whether the driver is loaded on boot. The current values will be shown in brackets ('[]'). Hitting <ENTER> without typing an answer will keep that current value. Ctrl-C will abort.
