By default, o2cb fences the box by calling emergency_restart(). While this scheme works well in production, it comes in the way during testing as it does not let the tester take stack/core dumps for analysis. This patch allows user to dynamically change the fence method to panic() by: # echo "panic" > /sys/kernel/config/cluster/<clustername>/fence_method Signed-off-by: Sunil

Hi, According to comments in file fs/ocfs2/cluster/quorum.c:70 about the self-fencing operations : /* It should instead flip the file ?* system RO and call some userspace script. */ So, I tried to add it (but i did'nt find a way to flip the fs in RO). Here is a proposal for this functionnality, based on ocfs2-1.4.7. This patch add an entry 'fence_cmd' in /sys to specify an

Hi All, Please I would like to know what the maximum number of files (limit) is for an OCFS2 file system created on a x86_64 system with default options on a 900GB LUN. The system specs are listed below. It was noticed that at some point any attempt to create an additional file on the file system hangs the session and hangs accessto the file system as well. Attempts to start the application

Hello Guys, After upgrade to 1.4.7-1 my FS does not mount anymore. Just after upgrade rpm, FS mount and works fine, but after reboot server, it does not work anymore. FS are created with ocfs2-1.4.4 and ocfs2-tools-1.4.3-1. If I downgrade to old version doesn't work too. Messages when trying to mount with new version: # mount /d01 mount.ocfs2: Device name specified was not found while

We upgraded our production database cluster (6 node) from EL4 Update 5 to EL5 Update 5, including upgrading OCFS2 from 1.2.9 to 1.4.4. We are now noticing slowdown of batch jobs in Oracle, while hotbackup runs faster. One thing we saw is that journal mode changed from write-back to ordered, as we don't specify journal mode during mount. Oracle sees this as slowdown based on higher IO latency,

These patches comprise the bulk of our outstanding changes for Ocfs2 and Configfs. Configfs gets some lockdep updates, and we remove it's EXPERIMENTAL tag as things have been quite stable for some time now. Ocfs2 gets fixes that made it in too late for 2.6.24, and several new features. The most interesting are listed below: We've been on the path to removing the "vote"

We are setting up 2 new EL5 U4 machines to replace our current database servers running our demo environment. We use 3Par SANs and their snap clone options. The current production system we snap clone from is EL4 U5 with ocfs2 1.2.9, the new servers have ocfs2 1.4.3 installed. Part of the refresh process is to run fsck.ocfs2 on the volume to recover, but right now as I am trying to run it on our

Hi, After problem described in http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-users/2010- December/004854.html we've upgraded kernels and ocfs2-tools on every node. The present versions are: kernel 2.6.32-bpo.5-amd64 (from debian lenny-backports) ocfs2-tolls 1.4.4-3 (from debian squeeze) We didn't noticed any problems in logs untill last friday, when the whole ocfs2 cluster crashed. We know

Hi Linus, Here are some 2.6.20 fixes for ocfs2. The patch by Zhen Wei isn't really a fix, but a very small amount of support for a feature which is mostly implemented in ocfs2-tools. Considering it's just a single attribute export via configfs, I'd say it's pretty safe to merge. Please pull from 'upstream-linus' branch of
