[Ocfs2-users] initial cluster setup

[Kevin Hulse]

Think of the nodes that share ocfs filesystems as
a cluster. The configuration and modules for ocfs
form a cluster of sorts. The ocfs configuration
must be aware of all nodes that attach to the
filesystems. Add a node and that shared configuration
needs to be changed and updated on all nodes
of the "cluster".

Didn't you configure any files in /etc for the
first node?
