Hi,
I'm new to this list and to the ocfs2 system and to clustering in general (3
strikes?--ack!). I have some problems with my first attempt at configuring an
ocfs2 system and need some perspective. My setup is a Compaq Proliant CL380 2
node cluster with a shared storage array. Both nodes are currently running
SLES 10. However, I am just trying to get one node working. I have read the
User Guide, but can't get it working. I also don't know if I even created the
ocfs2 partition correctly.
I started by just running ocfs2console, but no devices showed up. My shared
array is located at /dev/sda. I then created a Linux(0x83) partition
(/dev/sda1) using fdisk. At that point I could format it from ocfs2console,
then it shows up in the device list. I couldn't see in any of the docs if this
was the correct procedure or if the partition type is correct.
However, when I attempt to mount it, I get:
ocfs2_ht_ctl: Unable to access cluster services while starting heartbeat
mount.ocfs2: Error when attempting to run /sbin/ocfs2_ht_ctl: "Operation not
permitted: : Could not mount /dev/sda1
Doing /etc/init.d/ocfs2 status shows no output of any sort. Doing
/etc/init.d/ocfs2 status shows:
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
Here is my /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf:
node:
ip_port = 7777
ip_address = 192.168.0.162
number = 0
name = st162
cluster = ocfs2
cluster:
node_count = 2
name = ocfs2

What am I missing? Thanks for any help/perspective you can offer.
