Hi, Thanks for your reply and the valuable comments.
Curently I am only sanity testing the Rhel 7.2 cluster configuration with our FC storage arrays, so performance really doesn't matters for us at the moment. Also with regard to creating nfs cluster resources over gfs2, we followed the below steps, but still "showmount -e" doesn't list the export entries, *Note:* This steps are followed after mounting gfs2 file systems on cluster nodes, 1. pcs resource create ClusterIP ocf:heartbeat:IPaddr2 ip=192.168.2.90 cidr_netmask=24 op monitor interval=30s 2. pcs resource create NFS-D nfsserver nfs_shared_infodir=/global/nfsinfo nfs_ip=192.168.2.90 3. pcs resource create nfs-cm-shared exportfs clientspec= 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0 options=rw,sync,no_root_squash directory=/SAP_SOFT fsid=0 4. Added resource dependancies 5. [root@node2-atto ~]# showmount -e 192.168.2.90 Export list for 192.168.2.90: **** No Entries ***** I went through RedHat forums and it is mentioned that Exporting a GFS2 filesystem in an Active/Active configuration is only supported when using *Samba+CTDB* to export the GFS2 filesystem. Please let us know if its mandatory to configure CTDB when nfs over gfs2 is configured or anyother options is available. Thanks, Munavar.
