|
Description:
|
The /sys/fs/ocfs2/max_locking_protocol file displays version
|
of ocfs2 locking supported by the filesystem. This version
|
covers how ocfs2 uses distributed locking between cluster
|
nodes.
|
|
The protocol version has a major and minor number. Two
|
cluster nodes can interoperate if they have an identical
|
major number and an overlapping minor number - thus,
|
a node with version 1.10 can interoperate with a node
|
sporting version 1.8, as long as both use the 1.8 protocol.
|
|
Reading from this file returns a single line, the major
|
number and minor number joined by a period, eg "1.10".
|
|
This file is read-only. The value is compiled into the
|
driver.

|
Description:
|
The /sys/fs/ocfs2/loaded_cluster_plugins file describes
|
the available plugins to support ocfs2 cluster operation.
|
A cluster plugin is required to use ocfs2 in a cluster.
|
There are currently two available plugins:
|
|
* 'o2cb' - The classic o2cb cluster stack that ocfs2 has
|
used since its inception.
|
* 'user' - A plugin supporting userspace cluster software
|
in conjunction with fs/dlm.
|
|
Reading from this file returns the names of all loaded
|
plugins, one per line.
|
|
This file is read-only. Its contents may change as
|
plugins are loaded or removed.

Contact: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
|
Description:
|
The /sys/fs/ocfs2/active_cluster_plugin displays which
|
cluster plugin is currently in use by the filesystem.
|
The active plugin will appear in the loaded_cluster_plugins
|
file as well. Only one plugin can be used at a time.
|
|
Reading from this file returns the name of the active plugin
|
on a single line.
|
|
This file is read-only. Which plugin is active depends on
|
the cluster stack in use. The contents may change
|
when all filesystems are unmounted and the cluster stack
|
is changed.
|
|
What: /sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack
|
Date: April 2008
|
Contact: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
|
Description:
|
The /sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack file contains the name
|
of current ocfs2 cluster stack. This value is set by
|
userspace tools when bringing the cluster stack online.
|
|
Cluster stack names are 4 characters in length.
|
|
When the 'o2cb' cluster stack is used, the 'o2cb' cluster
|
plugin is active. All other cluster stacks use the 'user'
|
cluster plugin.
|
|
Reading from this file returns the name of the current
|
cluster stack on a single line.
|
|
Writing a new stack name to this file changes the current
|
cluster stack unless there are mounted ocfs2 filesystems.
|
If there are mounted filesystems, attempts to change the
|
stack return an error.
