Hi,
I am preparing a build of a RHEL 6 cluster with a filesystem resource(s) (ext4
or XFS). The customer would like to use LVM snapshots of the filesystems for
tape backup. The tape backup may take a few hours after which the snapshot
will be deleted.
Questions:
1.
Is the filesystem resourc

I understand that. That's why I'm looking for that "external" so

It reduces the overhead for rgmanager - less resources for the daemon to

Assume for a moment that you have an EL5 NFS Cluster.
You have a clustered service "nfs-server1" that has an IP resource and
several "child" filesystems tied to it so that the filesystems move
when the IP moves through the cluster. Each of these chi

FYI, RHN support has provided no insight to the problem. We recreated the GFS2
filesystems and can join/use them, but after a few days, they all withdraw at
some point. :(
I suspect a virtio_blk caching issue is causing the problems with GFS2 on KVM
guests. I read in the RHEL 5.6 (beta) rele
