My O/S is Suse Linux Enteprise Server 11 Service Pack 1. My SCSI device is a hardware iSCSI RAID chassis. I have done a variety of reads and writes to this device without any problems, and there are no network or I/O errors in any logs.
The steps I took: 1) mkfs.ocfs2 -N 4 -b 4k -C 512k -J block64 -T datafiles /dev/sdd1 268435456 2) fsck.ocfs2 -fy /dev/sdd1 # no problems 3) Mounted file system as "/foo" two nodes using "crm resource start fs", which is just set up to do a mount.ocfs2 -o noatime 4) Ran "rsync -aHPv /local/source/dir. /foo/." on one of the two nodes 5) Ran "crm resource stop fs" to unmount the file system from both nodes 6) fsck.ocfs2 -fy /dev/sdd1 Output: Checking OCFS2 filesystem in /dev/sdd1: Label: <NONE> UUID: 93F5216F0A2041009BA37A97C0099F70 Number of blocks: 268435456 Block size: 4096 Number of clusters: 2097152 Cluster size: 524288 Number of slots: 4 /dev/sdd1 was run with -f, check forced.

Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity. Pass 4a: checking for orphaned inodes Pass 4b: Checking inodes link counts. All passes succeeded. The other node was completely idle the entire time. A recursive "diff" shows that the directory tree copied successfully. Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated. I do not think I can deploy a solution that shows this sort of flakiness. (Or are my expectations misplaced, and these messages from fsck are normal for a cleanly unmounted partition?) Thanks. - Pat _______________________________________________ Ocfs2-users mailing list Ocfs2-users@oss.oracle.com http://oss.oracle.com/mailman/listinfo/ocfs2-users
