[Ocfs2-users] initial cluster setup

[Matthew Boeckman]

I followed the manuals advice on setting up the initial nodes - and let 
it create the /etc/cluster/ocfs2/cluster.conf (below) for me. This file 
is identical on both systems. I restarted o2cb on both systems after 
this file was in place.

I get conceptually how it all fits together, are you saying that I have 
a config problem?

cluster.conf:
node:
         ip_port = 7777
         ip_address = 10.1.1.100
         number = 0
         name = leto-ii
         cluster = ocfs2

node:
         ip_port = 7777
         ip_address = 10.1.1.33
         number = 1
         name = voyager
         cluster = ocfs2

cluster:
         node_count = 2
         name = ocfs2
