No, I mean _USER = user id_.

Sunil, I am sure that OCFSv2 will be 100% reliable common use file system in 1 - 2 years from now. ITY is already reliable enough for non-critical applocations. But it should not be used for 100% critical applications for now, except when you have not other chances, and except when it is 100% certificd combination of software (Linux version, application version and so on). Single heartbeat channel is 1 proiblem; selffencing in all cases (even when no activity on FS) is another, not tested in big installations with the common use files is reason #3.

Remember memory leak an creating / removing file loop? You an run it for 1 hour and 1 day, but it killed server in 1 week. Usually 1 week is enough for any leak to kill the server.



- 900 GB file sytem and we create 1,000,000 directories with 5,000,000 files in it
No, we limit 32000 files in a directory. Doc in the FAQ.

- directory with 100,000 files inside
No. See above.

- file name length 512 symbols in UTF8 encoding
No, as charactersets are not handled by the fs. But knock yourself out.

- we run 'mkdir x; rmdir x' in a loop for a week...
What so magical about a week. Again, knock yourself out.

etc etc...

I am more concerned about OCFSv2 usage as a common file system, and not so many about LVM + OCFSv2. OCFSv2 looks pretty stable when used for limited ## of files and limited usage scenario (such as Oracle usage) but not as a common file system used by thousand of students with unlimited fantasy...
No, it does not make your morning coffee.
