HI, Sorry for repeating same mail ,while composing that mail i mistakenly typed the send button.I am facing problem with my gfs and below is the running setup. My setup Two node Cluster[only to create shared gfs file system] with manual fencing running on centos 4 update 5 for oracle apps. Shared gfs partition are mounted on both the node[active-active] Whenever i type df -h command it

...ms (such as XFS, ReiserFS). I'm exploring whether is there anyway we can tune the GFS parameters to make the system more responsive? I have read that we can apply 'dir_index' option to ext3 partition to speedup things, but I'm not so sure about GFS. Below are the output from "gfs_tool gettune /export/gfs" : ilimit1 = 100 ilimit1_tries = 3 ilimit1_min = 1 ilimit2 = 500 ilimit2_tries = 10 ilimit2_min = 3 demote_secs = 300 incore_log_blocks = 1024 jindex_refresh_secs = 60 depend_secs = 60 scand_secs = 5 recoverd_secs = 60 logd_secs = 1 quotad_secs = 5 inoded_secs = 15 glock_p...

I experienced the following problem while doing this: If I set the option locking = no in smb.conf it takes about 4 minutes to copy a file of 1GB size. If I set locking = yes it takes about 1 hour.

Hi everybody, as discussed and agreed at the Cluster Summit we need to split our tree to make life easier in the long run (etc. etc.). We need to decide how we want to do it and there are different approaches to that. I was able to think of 3. There might be more and I might not have taken everything into consideration so comments and ideas are welcome. At this point we haven't really
