Hi,

I've tried to configure ocfs2.pcmk again with ocfs2 rpms 1.6.3.1
and rpms pacemaker-1.1.2-7.el6 & corosync-1.2.3-21.el6 :
I've configured the clone-dlm and the o2cb-dlm likewise I did
with 1.4.3-3 and with the export in /etc/init.d/corosync :
export 
COROSYNC_DEFAULT_CONFIG_IFACE="openaisserviceenableexperimental:corosync_parser"
but when starting corosync , clone-dlm start successfully,
but on clone-o2cb the bringup_daemon fails , so I tried to start it 
manually with -D and got:
ocfs2_controld.pcmk -D
ocfs2_controld[8533]: 2011/02/11_15:09:39 CRIT: get_cluster_type: This 
installation of Pacemaker does not support the '(null)' cluster 
infrastructure. Terminating.
whereas it was starting when using ocfs2 rpms 1.4.3-3 with same releases 
of pacemaker and corosync.

Any idea ?
Thanks a lot.
Alain
