Hello,

Looking at the New features list (http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/NewFeaturesList) I've noticed that a lot of new features are marked as requiring a 2.6.2x or 2.6.3x kernel. As we're keen on using vendor-provided kernels I was wondering what features (namely noatime / nodiratime) would be included with ocfs2-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5-1.4.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm.

Strictly speaking this is a 2.6.18 kernel package, does this mean none of the features mentioned on http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/NewFeaturesList which require a higher kernel will be available?

Regards,

Wessel
