[Ocfs2-users] Unable to access cluster service

[Paul Mathews]

Hello,

I'm running Debian stable on a custom 2.6.27.3 kernel. So far, whenever I try 
to start the cluster service, it throws a "o2cb_ctl: Unable to access cluster 
service Cannot initialize cluster" error. I have compiled ocfs2-tools 1.4.1 
from source, and have tried ocfs2 both as modules, and compiled into the 
kernel. As of now, I have been unable to get the cluster service started.

Currently, ocfs2 is compiled into the kernel, and the o2cb init script does 
not run on startup:

root at debian1:~# /etc/init.d/o2cb start
Mounting ocfs2_dlmfs filesystem at /dlm: OK
Starting Oracle cluster ocfs2: Failed
o2cb_ctl: Unable to access cluster service Cannot initialize cluster

cluster:
        node_count = 2
        name = ocfs2
node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 192.168.0.4
        number = 0
        name = debian1
        cluster = ocfs2
node:
        ip_port = 7777
        ip_address = 192.168.0.5
        number = 1
        name = debian2
        cluster = ocfs2
