Hi Shrikant,
Guess your question was related to the importance and need of the CFS
primary node. AFAIK, the primary node used to be the only node allowed
to do metadata transactions earlier. But in CFS 5.0, this behaviour
was changed wrt FS v7 and now all nodes can do metadata transactions.
Of cou
So, how come file system consistency is maintained if all the nodes are
participating in metadata transactions?
Thanks & Regards,
Shrikant Tapse.

Also note that if using CFS 5.0 & disklayout 7 (the default for a new
file system), selecting the CFS primary is essentially irrelevent, as
all cluster nodes participate in metadata transactions. The CLI to
select is kept primarily for backward compatability.
