Infrastructure Software

Hi there,

I installed ocfs2-2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.EL-1.0.4-1.i686.rpm onto RedHat linux AS v4 update 1. Installation looks OK. And configure ocfs2 (At this stage i only added 1 node in the cluster), load and start accordingly. Then paritition the disk and mkfs.ocfs2 the partition. Everything seems OK.

[root@node1 init.d]# ./o2cb status
Module "configfs": Loaded
Filesystem "configfs": Mounted
Module "ocfs2_nodemanager": Loaded
Module "ocfs2_dlm": Loaded
Module "ocfs2_dlmfs": Loaded
Filesystem "ocfs2_dlmfs": Mounted
Checking cluster ocfs2: Online
Checking heartbeat: Not active

But here you can check if the partition is there:
[root@node1 init.d]# fsck.ocfs2 /dev/hda12
Checking OCFS2 filesystem in /dev/hda12:
label: oracle
uuid: 27 74 a6 70 32 ad 4f 77 bf 55 8e 3a 87 78 ea cb
number of blocks: 612464
bytes per block: 4096
number of clusters: 76558
bytes per cluster: 32768
max slots: 2

/dev/hda12 is clean. It will be checked after 20 additional mounts.

However, mount -t ocfs2 /dev/hda12 just does not work.

[root@node1 oracle]# mount -t ocfs2 /dev/hda12 /oradata/m10g
mount.ocfs2: No such device while mounting /dev/hda12 on /oradata/m10g
[root@node1 oracle]# mount -L oracle
mount: no such partition found

Looks like mount just can not see the ocfs2 partition somehow.
I cannot find much info in metalink and anywhere else, does anyone here come across this issue before?

Regards,
Eric
