The patch titled Subject: ocfs2: o2hb: increase unsteady iterations has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is o2hb-increase-unsteady-iterations.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/o2hb-increase-unsteady-iterations.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/o2hb-increase-unsteady-iterations.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: o2hb: increase unsteady iterations When run multiple xattr test of ocfs2-test on a three-nodes cluster, mount failed sometimes with the following message. o2hb: Unable to stabilize heartbeart on region D18B775E758D4D80837E8CF3D086AD4A (xvdb) Stabilize heartbeat depends on the timing order to mount ocfs2 from cluster nodes and how fast the tcp connections are established. So increase unsteady interations to leave more time for it.
