[Ocfs2-users] OCFS2 1.4 + DRBD + iSCSI problem with DLM

This is not a coherent shared disk environment. The iscsi target
has no idea that the device is also being updated from another
source.

Disks from two nodes (node1 and node2) are connected using DRBD (primary/primary mode) and this shared storage should be accessable from all three nodes. Because of that, node1 has the iSCSI target setup on top the /dev/drbd1 device. I was also able to format the shared storage using OCFS2.
