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

28 tristate "O2CB Kernelspace Clustering"
32 OCFS2 includes a simple kernelspace clustering package, the OCFS2
33 Cluster Base. It only requires a very small userspace component
34 to configure it. This comes with the standard ocfs2-tools package.
35 O2CB is limited to maintaining a cluster for OCFS2 file systems.
36 It cannot manage any other cluster applications.
38 It is always safe to say Y here, as the clustering method is
41 config OCFS2_FS_USERSPACE_CLUSTER
42 tristate "OCFS2 Userspace Clustering"
43 depends on OCFS2_FS && DLM
46 This option will allow OCFS2 to use userspace clustering services
47 in conjunction with the DLM in fs/dlm. If you are using a
48 userspace cluster manager, say Y here.
50 It is safe to say Y, as the clustering method is run-time
54 bool "OCFS2 statistics"
55 depends on OCFS2_FS && DEBUG_FS
58 This option allows some fs statistics to be captured. Enabling
59 this option may increase the memory consumption.
61 config OCFS2_DEBUG_MASKLOG
62 bool "OCFS2 logging support"
66 The ocfs2 filesystem has an extensive logging system. The system
67 allows selection of events to log via files in /sys/o2cb/logmask/.
68 This option will enlarge your kernel, but it allows debugging of
69 ocfs2 filesystem issues.
72 bool "OCFS2 expensive checks"
76 This option will enable expensive consistency checks. Enable
77 this option for debugging only as it is likely to decrease
78 performance of the filesystem.
