ocfs2 and oracle linux 7.1

1008768Dec 12 2015 — edited Dec 18 2015

Hi,

I have installed OEL 7.1 as guest OS within Oracle VM 3.3.3. I am facing issue to mount ocfs2 volume after reboot.  the mount entry has been added to fstab and services are enabled during startup of OS, each time I have to start ocfs2 and then restart o2cb to mount ocfs volume.

The steps performed before reboot guest os

  • systemctl enable ocfs2.service
  • systemctl enable o2cb.service
  • /dev/xvdc               /mnt                    ocfs2   _netdev,datavolume,nointr 0 0

After reboot it doesn't mount the volume. if I try to start ocfs2 service using systemctl there is not output. (no fail/success)

[root@w1 ~]# systemctl start ocfs2.service

whereas the status displays for the service

[root@w1 ~]# systemctl status ocfs2.service
ocfs2.service - Load ocfs2 Modules
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ocfs2.service; enabled)
   Active: active (exited) since Sat 2015-12-12 08:16:29 AST; 18min ago
Main PID: 643 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
   CGroup: /system.slice/ocfs2.service

Dec 12 08:16:28 w1.pbad.sbg.com.sa service[643]: Starting Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2) mount.ocfs2: Unable to access cluster service while trying initialize cluster
Dec 12 08:16:28 w1.pbad.sbg.com.sa service[643]: [  OK  ]
Dec 12 08:16:29 w1.pbad.sbg.com.sa systemd[1]: Started Load ocfs2 Modules.
Dec 12 08:34:48 w1.pbad.sbg.com.sa systemd[1]: Started Load ocfs2 Modules.

To solve this problem I have to perform manually the following,

[root@w1 ~]# service ocfs2 start

Starting ocfs2 (via systemctl):                            [  OK  ]

[root@w1 ~]# service o2cb restart

[root@w1 ~]# mount -a

Is there any way to solve this issue.

thanks,
