Hi Experts, We have a 4nodes RAC running and recently one is down due to hardware (fibre optics card) failure. Since running on 3-nodes RAC, the surviving server just keep crashing. We cannot figure out why is this happening but checking /var/log/messages we have these error (notice the msg before crashing at 8:32): Dec 12 08:30:45 x335-142 kernel: (2) ERROR: file entry name did not match inode,

Greetings, I read from archive that OCFS is for kernel 2.6. which means RHAS4.0 is supported. However, I can't find the download for this version. Is the support official and where can I download it.

Ok guys & gals here is the scenario: 1.) Host RHEL 4 U3 2.6.9-34.0.2.EL 2.) OCFS2 latest version 3.)

Downloaded & installed ASMLib 2.0 on both nodes 5.) Ran

I am still having this weird problem with nodes hanging while I'm running OCFS. I'm using OCFS 1.0.9-12 and RHAS 2.1 I've been working on tracking it down and here's what I've got so far: 1. I create a file from node 0. This succeeds; I can /bin/cat the file, append, edit, or whatever. 2. From node 1, I do an operation that accesses the DirNode (e.g. /bin/ls) 3. Node 0

Hi all, I trying install OCFS in Red Hat AS 2.1, with Kernel 2.4.9-e.27, updated by RedHat-Network Service. When i compile the source code for version ocfs-1.0.9 , ( configure, make and make install) , and then i execute "depmod -a", i have the next output: depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.9-e.27/kernel/drivers/addon/ocfs/ocfs.o If i try insert module with

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!

As I said before, I'm not a linux expert. In which file of kernel source can I look for any missing code ?

Looking for any ideas where I need to look to fix this: I'm installing RHEL3 AS (update 4) on Dell PowerEdge 6850's.

Hi all, Sorry to break in, but I find this thread a bit interesting. Jeram: I'm not very familiar with HP storage and cannot find too much info on the EVA 6000 array. Is it related to the EVA 5000 somehow, or is it a NAS array? In any case, how is the array configured. If the algorithm for hartbeat is as described earlier (36 sector reads and one write per second (per host???)) then you

I have set up an ocfs system using two linux nodes connected using firewire.

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

Hi Sunil, I'm looking into this thread now. Does this mean we cannot use FTP option to copy OCFS files to ext3? If so, is there any ftp version available for OCFS, similar to cp --o_direct? Also, is there any version of sync available for OCFS (in normal FS, sync does a refresh of FS from kernel cache so that the FS is consistent). By this can we say that the FS shard by both nodes is
