Even being old, I'm flagging this case as "ubuntu-ha" for consideration
in Ubuntu-HA effort for Eoan. I'll close this case after considering
debugfs.ocfs2 capabilities and kernel in question.

Title:
  mismatch between ocfs2-tools version and kernel

Status in ocfs2-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In at least 11.10 (likely 12.04 as well, however...), the ocfs2-tools
  is behind what the 3.0 kernel is creating on disk.  This can be seen
  trivially by attempting to examine the locks on an ocfs2 filesystem:

  ===# debugfs.ocfs2 -n -R "fs_locks" /dev/dm-1
  Debug string proto 3 found, but 2 is the highest I understand.

  The 1.8 tree in the ocfs2-tools git repo includes support for proto 3.
  That set of tools should probably be distributed with 11.10 and up, so
  that the tools match what the kernel is providing.

  Not having the tools match up to the kernel makes things very
  difficult, like trying to debug locking issues.
