[Ocfs2-users] Question about eth communication for ocfs2

[Alain.Moulle]

Hi Sunil,

yes I know about ocfs2.pcmk, but it was absolutely not working
in previous releases, so :
- is this stack ocfs2 for pacemaker maintained , supported ?
- is it really used on some customers clusters ?

Thanks
Regards
Alain
