Re: STABLE3: Cannot mount gfs, "no such device"

I'm using the vanilla kernel, 2.6.29.4. I've held off on RH's kernel patches.

I've downloaded the source from http://sourceware.org/cluster.

Has anyone made this combination work? Is there any more information I can give you?

Hello djm,


i don't think that stable3 works as expected on RHEL5U3 as it is
tracking the vanilla kernel >=2.6.29 and RHEL5 uses 2.6.18 and its
cluster suite uses another branch... Might be better if you checkout the latest branch for RHEL5 and build up your stack from there. As far as i know, the module lock_dlm is no more a module by itself in stable3 as it
is build into gfs.ko now.

It might be useful for you to read the change logs of stable3 (you'll
find them in the list archives) and also take a look on
http://sourceware.org/cluster for branches and other useful
information...

Hope that helps,

Marc

Any idea why dmesg reports that Lock_DLM has been installed, but no
module is reported by lsmod?

Will the RHE5U3 kmod_gfs2 rpm be compatible with STABLE3?  I had to
scrape out the RHEL5U3 rpms in order to get the STABLE3 cman and clvmd
working.

If you're installing from RHEL5 media, I believe the kmod-gfs2 RPM
supplies that object.

       I assumed that the dlm_lock would be built and installed with
       Cluster 3.0.0rc2, so I built the cluster without the
       gfs/cluster modules.

       When I modprobe gfs, dmesg reports that Lock_DLM has been
       installed (along with GFS and Lock_NoLock), however  lsmod did
       not show a lock_dlm.  I could not find lock_dlm.ko on the
       systems.  lsmod did show dlm and gfs was loaded.

       Please let me know where I can get the necessary modules.

       Thanks.

               Hi David,

               Usually this means, for whatever reason, that you
               don't have
               one (or more) of these kernel modules loaded:

               gfs2.ko, lock_dlm.ko, dlm.ko

               So check lsmod to see if they're there.  If not,
               you'll have
               to get them, and getting them depends on your
               platform, which
               you didn't mention.

               Regards,
