[Ocfs2-users] Linux RHEL 5.2 hangs for 1.5 hrs while fsck'ing the OCFS2 file system

[Sergey Prilutsky]

Hi there,
A month ago we ran into the fsck issue while rebooting one of the Oracle RAC nodes running on Linux RHEL 5.2. It was hanging for 1.5 hours
During the reboot, OS portion went fine, then it activated the data volumes in all data vg's with [OK]
Then displayed message: Checking filesystems - and it took it 1.5 hrs, then it finished the reboot.
 
Last weekend we rebooted the same box and faced the same issue, however, we sent the break, commented out (last "0" in /etc/fstab did not work neither) all OCFS2 lines in /etc/fstab and it booted fine. Then we mount -a them and life was good.
 
Also we added later on the fastboot to the grub.conf, then booted it - no problem for obvious reasons.
 
If anyone experienced the same issue - would you mind to light into the tonnel and share your experience and perhaps the fix?
Thanks
      Sergey Prilutsky
