[Ocfs2-users] 5 node ocfs2 cluster - what would be the best way to bring all these 5 nodes down without panic any nodes.

[Eduardo Diaz - Gmail]

Do you reboot you server, as it? happens if you umount your cluster ??
the procedure are very important. What software of cluster are you
using?? what do you see in you logs?

I hope that my server "not panicing quite frequently" :-)...
