[Ocfs2-users] VM node won't talk to host

Hello Bret,

An obvious question, but have you tried disabling the firewall on the KVM
VM? Also, are you able to ping the other two Ubuntu nodes from the KVM VM?

Onderwerp: [Ocfs2-users] VM node won't talk to host

I am trying to mount the same partition from a KVM ubuntu 8.04.1 virtual 
machine and on an ubuntu 8.04.1 host server.

I am able to mount the partition just on fine on two ubuntu host servers,
they 
both talk to each other.  The logs on both servers show the other machine 
mounting and unmounting the drive.

However, when I mount the drive in the KVM VM I get no communication to the 
host servers.  I have checked with tcpdump and the VM doesn't even attempt
to 
talk to the other cluster members.  The VM just mounts the drive like no one

else is on the cluster, even though both the other nodes already have the 
drive mounted.

I have checked and rechecked all the settings, the cluster.conf is the same
on 
all nodes, the drive haa the same uuid and the same label.  The only thing 
that is different is the actual device name.  On the host servers it is the 
AOE device '/dev/etherd/e0.1p11', on the VM the '/dev/etherd/e0.1' device is

mapped to '/dev/sdb' so the OCFS2 partition shows up as '/dev/sdb11'

The only thing I can think of is that the device names have to be the same 
between all hosts, but that really doesn't make any sense to me.  Any help 
would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks.
