I found this from ocfs1.4 document: g) NFS OCFS2 volumes can be exported as NFS volumes. This support is limited to NFS version 3, which translates to Linux kernel version 2.4 or later. Users must mount the NFS volumes on the clients using the nordirplus mount option. This disables the READDIRPLUS RPC call to workaround a bug in NFSD, detailed in the following link: http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-announce/2008-June/000025.html Users running NFS version 2 can export the volume after having disabled subtree checking (mount option no_subtree_check). Be warned, disabling the check has security implications (documented in the exports(5) man page) that users must evaluate on their own.
is it being fixed with centos 5.3 (2.6.18-164.11.1.el5)? anything I need to aware for exporting OCFS2 volume via NFS? -- Thomas Lau Infrastructure Delivery Manager eSun Holdings Limited Mobile: 852-93239670 Office phone: 29058104 "always I strive to push the boundaries of what we know, and what seems possible to us at this moment in time.
