[Ocfs2-users] 2 node OCFS2 clusters

[Srinivas Eeda]

In a cluster with more than 2 nodes, if a network on one node goes down, 
that node will evict itself but other nodes will survive. But in a two 
node cluster, the node with lowest node number will survive no mater on 
which node network went down.

thanks,
