[Ocfs-users] Question about filesystem ownership

I think this has got more to do with the way the file system was mounted.
We have put the entry for mounting ocfs file systems in rc.local in the
following manner

/bin/mount -t ocfs -o uid=oracle,gid=dba /dev/sda /ocfs01

This mounts with proper permissions. I think if you reboot , the next time
it would take it properly or you could put the above entries in rc.local or
fstab and then try to unmount and mount

Subject: [Ocfs-users] Question about filesystem ownership


	I've created a few OCFS filesystems (RHEL 3, OCFS 1.0.9-12) while
attempting to assign ownership by oracle:dba.  I've done this both with
ocfstool and mkfs.ocfs.  They both seem to accept the parameters, but the
resulting filesystem is always owned by root:root.
	This is not a fatal problem, since we can just throw all of our
Oracle files into a properly-owned subdirectory in each filesystem, but I
was wondering if this was expected behavior.  I recall running into
something like this with an ext3 Oracle server, so perhaps it doesn't have
anything to do with OCFS.
