To mount readonly, do:
mount -o ro /dev/sdX /dir

The difference between soft and hard is that in the latter the heartbeat is not
started. Meaning no need to join a dlm domain. The latter only works on
actual readonly devices.

I've seen some discussions in the past about "soft readonly" and "hard readonly" options in OCFS2. But I can't seem to find a description of them anywhere. Do I have look at code comments? Or is there another place that describes how these work? Are they mount options? I'm trying to configure a cluster with a single write-enabled server and multiple read-only servers. Does anyone have experience with this type of configuration? Can the hard readonly or soft readonly options be used to create such a configuration? If anyone has any experience setting up a cluster like this, I'd like to hear about your configuration and your experiences. Thanks Geary Sutterfield
