Probably better if you deinstall the package. That way you'll know
if<br>
make install is missing a binary or two.<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>

I'm going to use checkinstall to build package. <br>
So, do I need to uninstall my 1.4.1-1 ocfs2-tools or I can install
it above?<br>

Thanks again.<br>

Refer to the 1.6 user's guide. It talks about enabling new

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" target="_blank">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" target="_blank">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>

<div>Yes, indexed dirs removes this limit. 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>

<div>Hi.<br>
I have a system storage HP MSA 2012 with
12 drives in it: 8 drives are 2 Tb each
and 4 are 1 Tb each. All of them are in
array RAID 1+0. <br>
This storage is connected to two servers
which use data, stored on the storage.
So I'm using OCFS2 on these two nodes. <br>
Today, after long time of successfull
work with it, I've found that it has a
limit of 32000 subdirs. <br>
The trouble is I have more than 32000
subdirs and amount of subdirs will only
increase. <br>
<br>
Is there a way to overcome this limit?
I've found this topic: <a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/ocfs2-users@oss.oracle.com/msg03151.html" target="_blank">http://www.mail-archive.com/ocfs2-users@oss.oracle.com/msg03151.html</a>
which says that there is an option named
"indexed directories" and it can help,
but I didn't find the way to turn it on.<br>
Could you please advice me some
solution, by which I could update OCFS2
settings and not to loose all of my data
on the drives.<br>
My OS is Debian Lenny, 2.6.26 kernel
(both of servers).<br>
OCFS2 Tools version is 1.4.1.<br>
<br>
Thanks. </div>
