Hi,
Both GFS1 and GFS2 are safe from this problem since neither of them use
barriers. Instead we do a flush at the critical points to ensure that
all data is on disk before proceeding with the next stage.
Using barriers can improve performance in certain cases, but we've not
yet implemented them

What is the reason - it is strongly required to use at least two HBA in a SAN

I believe that this is only a limitation for RHEL4. RHEL5 should have a
fix that allows dm-multipath to properly pass ioctls to all devices.

From my understanding persistent SCSI reservations are only needed if I

Yes.

Hello all,
I have spent the day reading through the mailing list archives, Redhat
documentation, and CentOS forums, and - to be frank - my head is now
swimming with information.
My scenario seems reasonably straightforward : I would like to have two
file servers which mirror each others' data,
Hi,
We're making some progress on recovering our GFS disk..
We've created a small c app, which marked all bytes as 0xff on:
grp hdr: with offset 80
grp blk: with offset 120
But fsck takes ages to run (looks like weeks on our full disk). If we run
on a smaller disk the process completes
You don't have to have a mirrored LVM to do what youre trying to do.
You just need a common mountable share - typically a SAN or NAS. It
shouldn't be too hard to configure (and I've already done it). You
don't even *have* to have cluster suite - if you have a load balancer.
My brain isn't fast
The non-SAN option would be to use DRBD (http://www.drbd.org) and put
NFS, Samba, etc on top of the DRBD partition.

Hello all,
Sorry... wrong subject! I was with drbd on my head, but I don't like
him because I just can use 2 (two) nodes. The correct subject it's
gnbd and GFS!
I hope that someone can help me!

I was wondering if it is possible to run GFS on several machines with a
shared GFS LUN, but not use full clustering like RHCS. From the FAQs:
Can I setup GFS on a single node and then add additional nodes later?
Yes you can. For the initial single node setup, simply setup GFS

First of all, what's the problem with having RHCS running? It doesn't
mean you have to use it to handle resources failing over. You
