First, make sure the DLM module is loaded. Then look in /proc/misc to see if the dlm device has been registered (if the module is loaded then it should be) and that the protection on the dlm-control and/or dlm_<lockspace> device files is appropriate. Also, are you trying to run the tests as non-root? Only root can create a lockspace so you will need to create the lockspace first (as root) then set the permissions on the lockspace device for other users to access it. The default lockspace (as used by dlmtest & asttest) will be created dynamically, but there is a bug in the current version that prevents non-root users from creating it. -- patrick -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
