Instructions for OCFS2 filesystems in Debian ============================================ 1. Setup instructions --------------------- You will need to create a configuration file describing your cluster called /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf. An example is provided in: /usr/share/doc/ocfs2-tools/examples/cluster.conf Next, reconfigure ocfs2-tools to start the cluster at boot time by running: dpkg-reconfigure ocfs2-tools 2. Kernel modules ----------------- The init script for Debian expects to have most of the kernel code it uses available in modular form. In previous releases sctp module was necessary to work around a kernel starvation that led to crashes. With 1.2.1 this seems to be no longer necessary. Here follows the name and location of the modules: Module name Location -------------------------------- configfs File systems -> Pseudo filesystems -> Userspace-driven configuration filesystem ocfs2_nodemanager File systems -> OCFS2 file system support ocfs2_dlm File systems -> OCFS2 file system support ocfs2_dlmfs File systems -> OCFS2 file system support -- Jeremy Lainé Fri, 21 Nov 2008 08:08:08 +0100
