Ocfs2 users - Jun 2009 - OCFS2 Newbie Question - Replication

Hello,

Please bear with me since I am new to using OCFS2. Does OCFS2 provide
data replication or do I need something such as DRDB over ocfs2?

Thanks,
Sam.

	ocfs2 does not do data replication.  It's a shared-disk cluster
filesystem.  What happens underneath that shared disk is opaque to
ocfs2.
