Thank you for the answer. <br>I've updated kernel to .32 and now it's time to install OCFS2 tools 1.6.3. <br>I've downloaded this source: <a href="http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2-tools/dist/files/source/v1.6/ocfs2-tools-1.6.3.tar.gz">http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2-tools/dist/files/source/v1.6/ocfs2-tools-1.6.3.tar.gz</a><br>
What do you say about that? It should be better to wait until ocfs2 tools 1.6.3 for Debian will appear (there is only 1.4.1-1 for Debian: <a href="http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ocfs2-tools">http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ocfs2-tools</a>) or it should be better to compile it from the source? <br>
And by the way, when I'll install 1.6.3, should I update any options for my storage FS for indexed dirs to work?<br><br>Thanks.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/11/19 Sunil Mushran <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sunil.mushran@oracle.com">sunil.mushran@oracle.com</a>></span><br>

For that you'll need to upgrade the kernel/fs and the tools. Best if the kernel is .32 or higher. The tools should be 1.6.x. Debian has a drop of 1.6.3 tools. Check if they have built it. </div>
