- OCFS2 filesystem
- ==================
- OCFS2 is a general purpose extent based shared disk cluster file
- system with many similarities to ext3. It supports 64 bit inode
- numbers, and has automatically extending metadata groups which may
- also make it attractive for non-clustered use.
- You'll want to install the ocfs2-tools package in order to at least
- get "mount.ocfs2" and "ocfs2_hb_ctl".

- Caveats
- =======
- Features which OCFS2 does not support yet:
- - sparse files
- - extended attributes
- - shared writeable mmap
- - loopback is supported, but data written will not
- be cluster coherent.
- - quotas
- - cluster aware flock
- - cluster aware lockf
- - Directory change notification (F_NOTIFY)
- - Distributed Caching (F_SETLEASE/F_GETLEASE/break_lease)
- - POSIX ACLs
- - readpages / writepages (not user visible)
- Mount options
- =============
- OCFS2 supports the following mount options:
- (*) == default
- barrier=1 This enables/disables barriers. barrier=0 disables it,
- barrier=1 enables it.
- errors=remount-ro(*) Remount the filesystem read-only on an error.
- errors=panic Panic and halt the machine if an error occurs.
- intr (*) Allow signals to interrupt cluster operations.
- nointr Do not allow signals to interrupt cluster
- operations.
