[Ocfs-users] Changing a node's hostname.

[Sunil Mushran]

After changing the name in ocfs.conf, you will need (re)load the module
and mount the device.

The new nodename gets reflected in the device only during the mount.

ocfstool does not store any info. On startup, it reads the header of all
the partitions listed in /proc/partitions and lists those which match
ocfs' signature. So, it depends how you "dumped" those partitions. A
quick way would be to....

dd if=/dev/zero of/dev/sdXX bs=512 count=1
