It really should work; it works on my RHEL3 system: [root@magenta root]# e2label /dev/sdd3 [root@magenta root]# e2label /dev/sdd3 futon [root@magenta root]# e2label /dev/sdd3 futon [root@magenta root]# vi /etc/cluster.xml ... <service checkinterval="10" id="0" name="foo"> <device id="0" name="LABEL=futon" sharename=""> <!-- ^- name used to be /dev/sdd3 --> <mount forceunmount="yes" fstype="ext3" mountpoint="/mnt/1" options=""/> </device> ... </service> ... Starting the service and running the mount command yielded this on my machine: [root@magenta root]# mount ... /dev/sdd3 on /mnt/1 type ext3 (rw) ... Stopping the service causes the mount to go away correctly on my system. The label->device resolution has not changed since before the release of RHCS3, so there must be something missing that we don't know about. Note that "LABEL" is case-sensitive, and must be all capital letters, and that no spaces are allowed. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
