I don't know the code, but I'm guessing it's trying to create a lock space by opening one of the dlm kernel devices (/dev/dlm*) which should be controlled by the lock_dlm device driver. If that's not loaded, it will fail. Also, make sure the second box can physically see the SAN in /proc/partitions. I've seen some weird things like this happen when a cluster comes up but some of the nodes can't physically access the SAN. I hope this helps.
