OCFS2 filesystem
|
|
==================
|
|
OCFS2 is a general purpose extent based shared disk cluster file
|
|
system with many similarities to ext3. It supports 64 bit inode
|
|
numbers, and has automatically extending metadata groups which may
|
|
also make it attractive for non-clustered use.
|
|
|
|
You'll want to install the ocfs2-tools package in order to at least
|
|
get "mount.ocfs2" and "ocfs2_hb_ctl".

Mount options
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
OCFS2 supports the following mount options:
|
|
(*) == default
|
|
|
|
barrier=1 This enables/disables barriers. barrier=0 disables it,
|
|
barrier=1 enables it.
|
|
errors=remount-ro(*) Remount the filesystem read-only on an error.
|
|
errors=panic Panic and halt the machine if an error occurs.
|
|
intr (*) Allow signals to interrupt cluster operations.
|
|
nointr Do not allow signals to interrupt cluster
|
|
operations.
|
|
atime_quantum=60(*) OCFS2 will not update atime unless this number
|
|
of seconds has passed since the last update.
|
|
Set to zero to always update atime.
|
|
data=ordered (*) All data are forced directly out to the main file
|
|
system prior to its metadata being committed to the
|
|
journal.
|
|
data=writeback Data ordering is not preserved, data may be written
|
|
into the main file system after its metadata has been
|
|
committed to the journal.
|
|
preferred_slot=0(*) During mount, try to use this filesystem slot first. If
|
|
it is in use by another node, the first empty one found
|
|
will be chosen. Invalid values will be ignored.
