That doesn't seem to work for me. :-(
# gfs_tool settune / glock_purge 50
gfs_tool: can't change tunable parameter glock_purge: Invalid argument
I didn't follow this thread of discussion very well. I have to assume you're
on earlier versions of RHEL 5 ? Newer versions of gfs_kmod should have this
tunable (can't recall the exact gfs_kmod version it got included though).
kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5
kmod-gfs-0.1.16-5.2.6.18_8.1.14.el5
