Heartbeat is supposed to convert the hostname to lower-case internally
everywhere for consistency, so that comparison doesn't break due to case
sensitivity. It's possible this isn't working everywhere (it's been
buggy in the past), but noone sane uses anything but lower-case
hostnames anyway ;-)
If you've also used upper-case hostnames in /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf,
hrm, I'm not sure - the notify action of the filesystem script will try
to create some links based on lower-case hostnames. It _is_ possible
that this breaks, but the logs aren't sufficient to diagnose that.
Why do you need upper-case?

Lars
