Hello Junxiao, Thank for your information.
Is OCFS2 file system proved (or fully tested) only on x86 and x86_64 platform? my understanding is right? that means we should not recommend OCFS2 file sytem to the customers for being used under the other architectures in production before we do a full testing?
