I have two partitions with OCFS2 on the same cluster. On two of the nodes I have mounted one of the partitions read-only:
/dev/sdc1 on /logs type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev,noatime,heartbeat=local) /dev/sdb1 on /data type ocfs2 (ro,_netdev,noatime,heartbeat=local) On the admin node, I have them both mounted read-write: /dev/sdb1 on /data type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev,noatime,heartbeat=local) /dev/sdc1 on /logs type ocfs2 (rw,_netdev,noatime,heartbeat=local) My concern was with writing status files for the other nodes to see. If the partition was mounted read-only, would that cause another node to think that the read-only node has failed?
