[CI] RE: ssic-linux-devel digest, Vol 1 #300 - 1 msg

[Hinchley, S. <Sco...@hp...>]

Aneesh,
	are you going to allow lists of nodes (either 1,3,7 or 1-3) for
swap/disk devices that are the same on multiple nodes (ie. Half of the
nodes have /dev/sda2 as swap and half have /dev/hda2)?  Having one line
for each node will be large even with a 30 node cluster.
	The other useful item would be to have node based entries:

/dev/sda1	/home/node#		ext3	rw,node=3D*	0
2		; where # is replaced with node number

Brian,
	you may want to add a couple notes in the INSTALL file to remind
people to create/update /etc/fstab.ssi and /etc/inittab.ssi.

Subject: [SSI] changing mount/umount/swapon/fsck

Hi,=20

 With the cluster-tools code base in CVS the mount/umount/swapon/fsck on
a system  will be changed to SSI specific binaries. A backup of the old
binaries are taken as *.old (mount.old). The  above commands require a
new file /etc/fstab.ssi. The sample format is attached below.

# /etc/fstab.ssi: static file system information.
#
# <file system>	<mount point>	<type>	<options>
<dump>	<pass>
/dev/sda1	/	ext3	defaults,errors=3Dremount-ro,node=3D1
0	1
/dev/sda2	none	swap	sw,node=3D1	0	0
/dev/sdb2	none	swap	sw,node=3D2	0	0
proc		/proc	proc	defaults,node=3D*	0	0
/dev/fd0	/floppy	auto	defaults,user,noauto,node=3D*	0
0
/dev/cdrom	/cdrom	iso9660	defaults,ro,user,noauto,node=3D*
0	0
/dev/sda4 	/gfs 	ext3 	rw,node=3D1		0	2
none        /devfs        devfs        defaults,node=3D*        0 0




Make sure you create a equivalent file on your system before installing
cluster-tools/ssi/util-linux. This is not installed by default as of
now.=20

Sorry for doing a  checkin close to the release date. I was on leave
from last friday and reached back today.=20
