similar to: Can't load ocfs on ia64 EL3u3

Looking for any ideas where I need to look to fix this: I'm installing RHEL3 AS (update 4) on Dell PowerEdge 6850's. I've installed the hugemem kernels on these boxes and need to install and run ocfs. Kernel: ------- 2.4.21-27.0.4.ELhugemem Loaded the ocfs rpm's --------------------- # rpm -qa | grep ocfs ocfs-2.4.21-EL-smp-1.0.14-1 ocfs-support-1.1.5-1 ocfs-2.4.21-EL-1.0.14-1

Hi All, I am getting this error after updating RHEL 3 Update 5 to update 8..

Hello, I'm trying to implement the Oracle RAC on a firewire shared disk. I've patched the kernel (for multiple login firewire support), and both nodes can see the shared disk. Then, i've installed the files necessary for ocfs: ocfs-2.4.20-smp-1.0.8-4.i386.rpm ocfs-support-1.0.8-4.i386.rpm ocfs-tools-1.0.8-4.i386.rpm However, when i do a '/sbin/load_ocfs' this is what i get:

I successfully have OCFS running in a two-node RAC environment using RHAS 3 (2.4.21-4.EL) using Qlogic 2310 cards. IO performance, however, was terrible with the combination of OCFS and the Qlogic cards. After extensive testing, OCFS did fine on its own, as did the fibre cards. Put the two together, and everything literally ran twice as slow. Support at Qlogic pointed me to

>also - for async io ; >p2448994_9204_LINUX.zip is the patch to apply for oracle >(this is metalink ARU patch number). Wim, The patch description on Metalink says: DIRECT IO SUPPORT ON EXT2 FILESYSTEM Which wasn't quite what I was expecting.

Hello, I want to use ocfs for a 10g RAC installation on a 2 node cluster, consisting of 1 Athlon and 1 Pentium machine with Firewire storage. OS is RHAS 3. Since I need to build my own binary Athlon rpm's, I downloaded ocfs-1.0.12.tar.gz ocfs-tools-1.0.10.tar.gz I was able to install both (./configure ; make - make install). When I try to load_ocfs I get lots of errors

Well, I've compiled and installed Kernel 2.4.9-37 uniprocessor. I've made ocfs setup using version 1.0.9-9 uniprocessor. I've generated ocfs.conf using ocfstool. When I start ocfs using /etc/init.d/ocfs start, I receive the following errors: [root@RAC1 root]# /etc/init.d/ocfs start Loading OCFS: /sbin/insmod ocfs node_name=RAC1.localdomain ip_address=192.168.61 2 ip_port=7000

Can I create an OCFS 2 filesystem over a ASM volume to store datafiles? Thanks! Roger---

Hi, Is this "Unresolved Symbols" issue only occurring on VMware with e.38? We have OCFS users want to update their kernel to e.34 or e.38 without VMware. Please advise, Thanks!

I people, i install the ocfs in my virtual machine, with centos 5.3 and xen. But when i turn off the machine1, the ocfs start the fencing off the machine2.

Hi, I am using OCFS 1.0.11 with RH 2.1 e.30 on two dell servers and Oracle 9.2.0.5. I would like to use Oracle RAC to test some features on our storage array. For example: SCSI Reservations, IO fencing etc. Performance Fail-Over... I am looking for some scripts or procedures that Oracle recommended for doing those kind of functional tests. Please advice and thanks in advance, Roger----

Thanks Sunil for your advice. I tried that both for ocfs-tools-1.0.10.tar.gz and ocfs-1.0.12.tar.gz. ./configure --with kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.21.-9.0.01.ELorafw1 make KVER=up make install That was successful. When I tried to load_ocfs I still got "undefined symbol" errors. I found another ocfs-users thread from April where Wim suggested using the i686 kernel

I have installed OCFS2 on two nodes SuSE 10. Seems all works superb and nice from the first sight. But, /dev/sda ocfs2 rac1 is not sharing through net (port 7777) with rac0. On both nodes I have 500Mb /dev/sda disks that are mounted (and are ocfs2). But they did not share the content with each other (files and folders in it). So when I am creating the file in one node I am expecting to

Hi all, My Ct's box is RH 3.0 SMP kernel EM64T. They are asking if OCFS for SMP (EM64T) is available or not.

Hi everybody, My problem is that I want to add a new node to an existing RAC with ocfs2, without stop the database. If I add a new node to an existing ocfs cluster, do I need to stop the ocfs in the others nodes of the cluster? I've tried to do it without stop the ocfs in the others nodes but I get the following error:

I followed your instruction to compile OCFS and received the following errors: [root@RAC1 ocfs-1.0.11]# ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.9-e.38/linux checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are

As I said before, I'm not a linux expert. In which file of kernel source can I look for any missing code ? And specially what do I have to check ? __________________________________________ Mauro Staretz - MI Montreal Inform?tica Ltda Microsoft MCSE+I / MCDBA / MCP - Oracle OCP Tel: 55-21-2291-6116 R.2104 Fax: 55-21-2533-6028 __________________________________________ -----Mensagem
