OCI - How To Recreate ocfs2 cluster.conf with global-heartbeat option

edited Apr 4, 2024 6:40AM in Linux

Applies to:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later

Linux x86-64

Goal:

This document outlines the steps required to recreate the /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf using the global heartbeat option, the filesystem is new and has no data.

Solution:

1. Move or remove the old cluster.conf if it exists

$ mv /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf.ORIG

2. Create a new filesystem with the global-heartbeat option

$ mkfs.ocfs2 -L ocfsshare --cluster-name=ocfs2cluster --cluster-stack=o2cb --global-heartbeat /dev/sdb

3. Add the cluster nodes, make sure that the hostnames match exactly, run this on EACH cluster node.

Howdy, Stranger!
