[Ocfs2-users] formatting and mounting ocfs2 on 2 rac nodes
I ran into a problem in section 16 (Install & Configure Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2)) of the following article - http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac10gr2_iscsi_2.ht ml#16 <http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac10gr2_iscsi_2.h tml#16> . I have 2 RAC nodes, linux1 and linux2 (same names as articles uses). Both nodes will be running Oracle 10 (when i get to that step) In the subsection of Format the OCFS2 Filesystem, you are asked to format the ocfs2 filesystem on ONE node only - i did it on linux1 $ mkfs.ocfs2 -b 4K -C 32K -N 4 -L oracrsfiles /dev/sde1 . so that worked. next, you are asked to mount the filesystem on BOTH nodes. $ mount -t ocfs2 -o datavolume,nointr -L "oracrsfiles" /u02/oradata/orcl I was able to mount the filesystem on linux1 successfully. So, here is the problem. I can't mount the ocfs2 filesystem on linux2. It gives me mount : no such partition found. When I do a # fdisk -l On linux2, I can see all 5 areas ( crs, asm1, asm2, asm3, asm4) Any help appreciated.

[Ocfs2-users] formatting and mounting ocfs2 on 2 rac nodes
What does "mounted.ocfs2 -d" return on the two nodes?
