[Ocfs2-users] another node is heartbeating in our slot

[sundar mahadevan]

Additional info:
On my earlier attempts with other Linux OS namely ubuntu 8.10, the
configuration was:

system 1: Ubuntu 8.10 with iscsitarget (secondary hard drive with
logical volume) + open-iscsi (initiator) + ocfs2
system 2: Ubuntu 8.10 with open-iscsi (initiator detects the logical
volume on system 1) + ocfs2

But with Opensuse 11.1(on system 1) , as soon as i create a logical
volume, it is automatically detected as /dev/dm-0 on system 1 (no need
to install open-iscsi initiator)

It looks like i have a similar situation as the link below:

http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-users/2008-January/002328.html

On this post to the mailing list, Sunil Mushran states "You cannot
mount it simultaneously on a iscsi target (host) and a iscsi
node"

Could someone enlighten me if this is true with my case as well.
Thanks in advance.
