Hi Folks, Tomorrow I've got to create some GFS partitions over iSCSI and I'd like to know if the method I plan on using is correct or not. We will have 5 load balanced RHAS 5u2 servers sharing some GFS partitions. Here's my plan of action. 1. install gfs-utils (don't install clustering or "cluster storage"). 2. present the LUNs to each server. 3. do lvm stuff on each server. 3. mkfs.gfs2 -j5 -p lock_dlm -t what:goeshere /dev/vg02/lvolx . 4. mount from each server and put in fstab on each server. My problem is at number 3. If I want to use lock_dlm I need to specify a table <clustername:filesystemID>. However I do not want to setup a cluster I just want GFS. I can use lock_nolock which does not require a table but will that render the filesystem useless with >1 server having access to it ? Unfortunately I've found no documentation on a GFS only setup, I would be very grateful if somebody could help me out. Many thanks, Nick . -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
