If the NetApp has block-level snapshots, that would be an excellent solution (better than any kind of host-based snapshots). > Thank you, I tried it with CVS head of about April 8th. > I don't know why, but "gfs_tool freeze" causes the following error: > gfs_tool: unknown mountpoint /mnt/gfs There's a bug in gfs_tool so it doesn't recognize fs's on gnbd devices. You need to reference the fs using its 'list' value instead. Here's how it works on my machine: [root@va03 ~]# df Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on rootfs 7.4G 3.2G 3.8G 46% / /dev/gnbd/nda 7.7G 20K 7.7G 1% /gfs [root@va03 ~]# gfs_tool freeze /gfs gfs_tool: unknown mountpoint /gfs [root@va03 ~]# gfs_tool list 3501862912 gnbd0 foo:a.0 [root@va03 ~]# gfs_tool freeze 3501862912 [root@va03 ~]# gfs_tool unfreeze 3501862912 > I tried also today's CVS head (cmand wasn't compiled automatically;), > but fence_tool failed (It could not create a socket). > FC4 branch was not able to be compiled on FC3 (SOCK_ZAPPED matter). > I will consider using FC4-test3. The cluster components are changing radically in CVS head and don't all work together yet. So, you need to checkout code from the RHEL4 or FC4 cvs branches.
