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

Bret,



Unless I'm misunderstanding you, and what you're saying, I assure you, that's not the case. I have a mounted ocfs2 volume running right now on five servers. Some are /dev/sdb1, others /dev/sdc1, and yet others /dev/sdm1.

Turns out that you DO have to have the same device name on all nodes.  Even though the UUID is the same.  I pushed the network card for AOE on the host into the VM and used the same device names.  Like magic OCFS2 on the VM starts talking to the host.  That seems like a pretty serious limitation to me.



Does anyone with some knowledge of the code have any input on this short coming?





Thank you.
