and of heartbeat? This is a _heartbeat_ mailing list remember... > I do not know how to answer your OCFS2 userspace comment: http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2006-January/000833.html The concept being that its a bad idea to have OCFS2 and Heartbeat _not_ share the same membership information (essentially you have two clusters). With these patches ocfs2 goes into a sort of slave-mode and takes orders from Heartbeat. > By 'running the file system unmanaged' I meant that having an active/active > disk on a two node clusters adds complexity.
