This issue was answered in the mailing list just two days ago :)

Always good to read the mailing list archives :)

-----------------------------------------------
The mkfs.ocfs arguments for userid and groupid (-u and -g) are for
numeric userid/groupids, not for the actual username or group name
strings. Same goes for the mount -o options.

Subject: [Ocfs-users] Ocfs mount issues


I am trying to mount the ocfs partitions using the following command 
Mount -t ocfs -o uid=oracle,gid=dba /dev/sda /ocfs01 as user oracle and
group dba. 
However it mounts the volume as root. 
But if I use the ocfstool for the first and mount it as oracle:dba, the
subsequent mounts using the above command line mounts the volume as
oracle:dba.  
Is there something that I am missing or I will have to only use the
ocfstool for the first time. 


Regards 
Sriram
