Linus, et al, Here are the ocfs2 changes for 2.6.37. There are three major additions. Tao Ma has added readahead to our CoW operations. Sunil Mushran has added a global heartbeat mode, allowing one device heartbeat to support multiple ocfs2 mounts. Finally, Patrick J. LoPresti has done the final work to enable ocfs2 mounts on devices larger than 16TB. The ocfs2 disk format has always

Linus et al, Here are the last ocfs2 and configfs fixes for 2.6.39-rc. These include a configfs crash and a compatibility regression in the ocfs2 internal DLM. Please pull.

Back porting from mainline. For nfs exporting, ocfs2_get_dentry() returns the dentry for fh. ocfs2_get_dentry() may read from disk(when inode not in memory) without any cross cluster lock. this leads to load a stale inode. this patch fixes above problem. solution is that in case of inode is not in memory, we get the cluster lock(PR) of alloc inode where the inode in question is allocated

Hallo, I have two servers and both are connected to external array, each by own SAS connection. I need these servers to work simultaneously with data on array and I think that ocfs2 is suitable for this purpose. One server is P4 Xeon (Gentoo linux, i386, 2.6.22-r2) and second is Opteron (Gentoo linux, x86_64, 2.6.22-r2). Servers are connected by ethernet, adapters are both Intel

Hi, I've tried to run ocfs2 on debian stable (sarge). Have patched and compiled a new kernel-package using vanilla 2.6.14 sources. No compiler errors, all modules for ocfs2 builded. Installed the Debian packages ocfs2-tools_1.0.0-1_i386.deb and ocfs2console_1.0.0-1_i386.deb without any problems. But now I can't initialize the cluster, whether through ocfs2console or with

I'm running a bit late with the e-mail this time around, but I think that's ok since there really isn't any major new features here - the bulk of the Ocfs2 update is bug fixes, or cleanups. The same goes for configfs. The only two things that could be described as features would be: - Sunil has updated Ocfs2 to provide even more live cluster locking information via debugfs. - Joel

hello, I'm running Ubuntu Breezy with the OCFS2 modules in the standard kernel. I installed ocfs2console and ocfs2-tools I've formatted a partition with ocfs2. But I can't add any node or mount the device(with the ocfs2console). because I get a "Unable to access cluster service" I can't find the cause nor the solution to this. root@lenaeja:~# /etc/init.d/o2cb status

Good morning, I'm trying to build ocfs2-1.4.7 against a Centos 5.3 distro with a 2.6.30 kernel.

hi! i'm on debian lenny and trying to run ocfs2 on a dual primary drbd device. the drbd device is already set up as msDRBD0. to get dlm_controld.pcmk i installed it from source (from cluster-suite-3.0.10) now i configured a resource "resDLM" with 2 clones: primitive resDLM ocf:pacemaker:controld op monitor interval="120s" clone cloneDLM resDLM meta

The only non-fix here is Joel's new configfs convenience macros, but nobody is using them yet, so I think the patch is safe. By the way, these patches (as usual) are all rebased on top of your latest tree. I think that since the vast majority of ocfs2 and configfs patches are self-contained and within a small area of the kernel that this should probably be fine. If you feel otherwise however,

When I try and run the mkfs.ocfs2 command after I have updated all of the other nodes in the cluster with the new node information in cluster.conf I am getting the following error: mkfs.ocfs2 -b 4k -C 32K -L "ocfs2" -N 4 /dev/sdb1 mkfs.ocfs2 1.4.4 Cluster stack: classic o2cb Overwriting existing ocfs2 partition. mkfs.ocfs2: Could not create domain while initializing the dlm As this is

I was able to get the source code for ocfs2 and compile it. This worked and created the necessary .ko files Now I have to figure out why gnu parted 1.6.15 has bugs. when I try a partprobe on a partitioned firewire maxtor drive mount -t ocfs2 /dev/sdb1 /u01/oradata/orcl It says no such device.... Any ideas anyone?... Regards, Mandar Vengurlekar ----- Original Message ----- From: Mandar P
