Ocfs2 users - Oct 2009 - /etc/rc.local and /etc/fstab

Upon system boot, is it ok to mount OCFS2 mounts from /etc/rc.local
rather than /etc/fstab ?  

 

Are there any downsides to using rc.local that you are aware of?

 

Example /etc/rc.local script:

#!/bin/sh

#

# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.

# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't

# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

 

touch /var/lock/subsys/local

modprobe hangcheck-timer hangcheck_tick=1 hangcheck_margin=10
hangcheck_reboot=1

mount -t ocfs2 -o datavolume,nointr,_netdev,noatime /dev/mapper/mpath0
/u02

mount -t ocfs2 -o datavolume,nointr,_netdev /dev/mapper/mpath1  /u03

 

 

Thanks!

-Reid

Ensure you have the ocfs2 service enabled so that shutdown will
explicitly umount the fs before shutting down the network.
