OCFS2 is a *filesystem* - it does not allow you to 'share a drive'.

For OCFS2 to work, there must be an existing shared block device (e.g. 
FC/iSCSI SAN, shared SCSI bus, DRBD 8 device) accessible by the nodes. 
OCFS2 will not give you this but it will allow you to share a filesystem 
that resides on it once you do.
