Hi all,

I've one 3.5T Xserve with one LUN shared between 7 debian nodes :

# dmesg |grep -i ocfs

OCFS2 Node Manager 1.3.3
OCFS2 DLM 1.3.3
OCFS2 DLMFS 1.3.3
OCFS2 User DLM kernel interface loaded
OCFS2 1.3.3
ocfs2_dlm: Node 11 joins domain 7791C0F1366B4FAD99E46078BE5092A1
ocfs2_dlm: Nodes in domain ("7791C0F1366B4FAD99E46078BE5092A1"): 0 1

# uname -a

All nodes mount the shared partition without problem, but after some  
minute of utilization I get these error :

...cut...

Then all node have a huge load more than 100 with more than 50% of  
iowait.

I've tested the kernel 2.6.22 (don't remember the ocfs version),  
there are no ocfs2 error, but all opened to write file are truncated  
to zero size !

Have you an idea, do you know a stable version of ocfs2 build into a  
debian kernel ?

Thanks,

Cyril
