Hi,
thanks very much for your answer.
My problem is, that I connot really use kernel 2.6.22, because I also need the
openVZ patch which is not available in a stable version for 2.6.22. Is there a
way to backport ocfs2-Retry-if-it-returns-EAGAIN to 2.6.18?
Further I wonder why only one (and always the same) of my nodes is so unstable.
Are you sure that it cannot be any other problem?
Thanks very much,

This was fixed in 2.6.23, and there's a version of the patch backported
to
2.6.22:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mfasheh/ocfs2/backports/2.6.22.14/broken-out/0006-ocfs2-Retry-sendpage-if-it-returns-EAGAIN.patch
Unfortunately, It doesn't look like the patch would apply to 2.6.18
without
some work.
Can you upgrade to the latest stable 2.6.23 kernel? If you do, take the
time to apply the other patches in our 2.6.23 backports:

And this is the MAIN reason driver upgrades should never be tied to a
kernel upgrade. I will never understand why vendors and developers force
a complete kernel OS upgrade for a simple driver. It makes absolutely
zero sense.
