Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: OCFS2
I have no concerns with OCFS however OCFS2 being promoted as a general
purpose filesystem does make me nervous. This is because there are so many
more variables involved when positioning a filesystem for such broad use.
We've been using OCFS 1.1 and it's very stable and was a breeze to setup.

I don't get this.. I installed OCFS 1.1 a while back. It simply worked. And is still working. And is so darn useful I have envious Unix HP-UX & Solaris sysadmin colleagues desperate for something similar to use.
I used ASMlib with Powerpath and ran into all kinds of weird intermittant I/O problems.. which the TAR finally suggesting were "problems" (I call it plain bugs) in EMC's Powerpath. I lost about 4 weeks of production & development time as a result. Which I could not afford to loose.
And now some of you complain about OCFS and make all kinds of dispariging comments on the subject? If you have a gripe, please get technical because I fail to find any value in a posting that just bitches about a product.
