[Ocfs2-users] Is this a valid configuration?

[Erik Schwartz]

Neil, I don't see an obvious reason why this configuration should be
considered "invalid". (Consider a case where the / filesystem is ext2,
and /d0/baz is ocfs2. Would you expect that to cause issues? I would not.)

If you'll humor my two cents, though, I don't like this sort of thing.
If you - or another sysadmin - somehow mounts these LUNs to their mount
points out of order, chaos may ensue.


Best regards -

Erik
