In ovm, ocfs2 kernel module is part of the kernel rpm itself and hence you don't need a separate ocfs2 package for kernel module. The errors suggest that your cluster configuration might be a problem. The corruption, and "another node heartbeating in my slot" could because of a misconfiguration of node numbers or mismatched cluster.conf on all nodes. File an SR with oracle linux/ovm support to get help on this.

Hi,

I'm using ovm 2.2.2, every 3-4 days I get heartbeat errors, : I/o errors Kernel panic - not syncing fatal exception, bad entry in directory #137: rec_len is smaller than minimal. After searching the internet I come to the conclusion that ocfs2 has some known bugs like these and that an upgrade of ocfs2 can solve them.
When I do:
[root@VMS01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep ocfs2
ocfs2-tools-1.4.3-4.el5

I don't get the version of the ocfs2 kernel package. So it's probably bundled, which leaves me with the question if I can upgrade it. And if so, which version should I use?

When I use the the el5.3 repo source I can upgrade it.. but won't I get 2 different packages, the kernel-bundles one and the new el5.3 one?

[root@VMS01 ~]# yum install ocfs2

Though, I canceled this command.

Thank you in advance.
