thanks for quick response, so does this mean, we can even remove that option on current 1.4 OCFS2 and prepare new host also without this option and we swing the storage and we should be fine?<div><br></div><div>Regards,<br>

    The datavolume option didn&#39;t really do much.  It just changed the
    filesystem identifier from OCFS2 to OCFS V1, so some programs which
    shall not be named would detect it as OCFS and do something
    special.  Those programs have long since been fixed.  And there&#39;s
    absolutely no other functional behavior change with or without the
    parameter.<br>

    Thanks,<br>
