Package: ocfs2-tools
Version: 1.6.4-1+deb7u1
Severity: normal
File: /etc/init.d/o2cb
Dear Maintainer,
the o2cb always fails at startup, because it is unable to bind the network
interface, so the machine does not join the cluster. It seems that the
interface is not usable when needed so I usually get this error:
- o2net: Error -99 while binding socket
The script /etc/init.d/o2cb is correctly called after the network setup script,
but this does not seem to be enough. I have been able to solve the problem by
adding a sleep of a few seconds at the beginning of the function "online_o2cb";
a nicer solution would be to add a check that the interface is up and
configured.
Anyway, thank you for your effort with Debian.
Have a nice day, Maurizio.

Thank you for the additional info. I think the cluster software like ocfs2
assumes static IPs because it depends on a stable network to work properly.
So at this point I will close this and not add any additional complexity into
the ocfs2 package.
