[OSR-users] Problem with OCFS2

[Stefano E. <ste...@so...>]

Hi Marc,


I succeed to get on single-node cluster with the Grub on external  
partition.
Now I have a doubt, how do I prepare the second node to add it to the  
cluster ?
What remains unclear to me is what I do to the infrastructure !
Thanks
