Re: [OSR-users] cannot install comoonics

[Patrick W. <pw...@em...>]

Okay, I've made some progress.  The dependency problem still exists,  
meaning the comoonics packages CAN NOT be installed via yum (yet).  I  
worked around the problem by downloading the neccessary packages  
manually, installing XML::DOM, XML::XQL and XML::XQL::DOM via "cpan",  
installing the comoonics-cs package with "rpm -Uhv --force comoonics- 
cs*.rpm" and the rest of the comoonics packages with just "rpm -Uhv  
*.rpm".

I'm trying to build an CentOS 5.2 based NFS based cluster to replace  
our old CentOS 4.x NFS clusters, but am having trouble understanding  
how this comoonics could possible work with NFS.  I thought you needed  
GFS (or some other cluster filesystem) to get CDSL support.  Does NFS  
actually have support for CDSL?  Are CDSLs handled somewhere else,  
above NFS?  Or does comoonics NFS support not use CDSLs for NFS based  
clusters?  If so, then how does that work?

Thanks
