NAME

6       mount.ocfs2 -  mount an OCFS2 filesystem
7

SYNOPSIS

9       mount.ocfs2 [-vn] [-o options] device dir
10

DESCRIPTION

12       mount.ocfs2  mounts  an  OCFS2 filesystem at dir. It is usually invoked
13       indirectly by the mount(8) command.

15

OPTIONS

17       _netdev
18              Indicates that the file system resides on a device that requires
19              network  access  (used  to prevent the system from attempting to
20              mount these filesystems until the network has  been  enabled  on
21              the  system).  mount.ocfs2(8)  transparently appends this option
22              during mount. However, users mounting the volume via  /etc/fstab
23              must  explicitly  specify  this mount option to delay the system
24              from mounting the  volume  until  after  the  network  has  been
25              enabled.
26
27
28       noatime
29              The file system will not update access time.
30
31
32       relatime
33              The  file  system will update atime only if the on-disk atime is
34              older than mtime or ctime.
35
36
37       strictatime,atime_quantum=nrsec
38              The file system will always perform atime updates, but the mini‐
39              mum update interval is specified by atime_quantum which defaults
40              to 60 secs. Set it to zero to always  update  atime.  These  two
41              options need work together.
42
43
44       [no]acl
45              Enables / disables POSIX ACLs (access control lists) support.
46
47
48       [no]user_xattr
49              Enables / disables extended user attributes.
50
51
52       commit=nrsec
53              Sync  all  data  and  metadata  every nrsec seconds. The default
54              value is 5 seconds.  Zero means default.
55
56
57       data=[ordered|writeback]
58              Specifies the handling of file data during metadata journalling.
59
60
61              ordered
62                     This is the default mode. Data is flushed to disk  before
63                     the corresponding meta-data is committed to the journal.
64
65
66              writeback
67                     Data   ordering is not preserved - data may be flushed to
68                     disk after the corresponding meta-data  is  committed  to
69                     the  journal. This is rumored to be the higher-throughput
70                     option.  While  it  guarantees   internal   file   system
71                     integrity, it can allow old data to appear in files after
72                     a crash and journal recovery.
73
74
75       errors=[remount-ro|errors=panic|errors=continue]
76              Specifies the behavior when an  on-disk  corruption  is  encoun‐
77              tered.
78
79
80              remount-ro
81                     This  is  the  default mode. The file system is remounted
82                     read-only.
83
84
85              panic  The system is halted via panic.
86
87
88              continue
89                     Ignore errors. Just log error message, return error  code
90                     to the calling process and continue.
91
92
93       localflocks
94              This disables cluster-aware flock(2).
95
96
97       coherency=[full|coherency]
98              Specifies  the  extent  of  coherency  for  the cached file data
99              across the cluster.  This mount option works with  Linux  kernel
100              2.6.37 and later.
101
102
103              full   This  is  the  default  mode. The file system ensures the
104                     cached file data is coherent across the cluster  for  all
105                     IO modes.
106
107
108              buffered
109                     The  file  system  only  ensures  the  cached  file  data
110                     coherency for buffered mode IOs.  It does not perform  IO
111                     serialization  for direct IOs. This allows multiple nodes
112                     to perform concurrent direct IOs to the same  file.  This
113                     is  the  recommended  mode  for  volumes hosting database
114                     files.
115
116
117       resv_level=level
118              Specifies the level of allocation  reservation  for  files.  The
119              higher  the  value,  the more aggressive it is. Valid values are
120              between 0 (reservation off) to 8  (maximum  space  for  reserva‐
121              tion). It defaults to 2. This mount option works with Linux ker‐
122              nel 2.6.35 and later.
123
124
125       dir_resv_level=level
126              By default, directory reservation scales  with  file  reservera‐
127              tion. Users should rarely need to change this value. If the file
128              allocation reservation is turned off, this option will  have  no
129              effect.  This  mount  option  works with Linux kernel 2.6.35 and
130              later.
131
132       inode64
133              Indicates that the file system can create inodes at any location
134              in  the  volume, including those which will result in inode num‐
135              bers greater than 4 billion.
136
137
138       [no]intr
139              Specifies whether a signal can interrupt IOs. It is disabled  by
140              default.
141
142
143       ro     Mount the file system read-only.
144
145
146       rw     Mount the file system read-write.

NOTES

150       To mount and umount a OCFS2 volume, do:
151
152
153       # mount /dev/sda1 /mount/path
154        ...
155       # umount /mount/path
156
157       Users mounting a clustered volume should be aware of the following:
158
159           1.  The  cluster  stack  must to be online for a clustered mount to
160           succeed.
161
162           2. The clustered mount operation is not instantaneous; it must wait
163           for the node to join the DLM domain.
164
165           3.  Likewise,  clustered  umount  is  also  not  instantaneous;  it
166           involves migrating all mastered lock-resources to the  other  nodes
167           in the cluster.
168
169       If  the  mount  fails, detailed errors can be found via dmesg(8). These
170       might include incorrect cluster configuration (say, a missing  node  or
171       incorrect IP address) or a firewall interfering with o2cb network traf‐
172       fic. Check the configuration as listed in o2cb(7) or the  man  page  of
173       the active cluster stack.
174
175       To  auto-mount  volumes  on  startup,  the file system tools include an
176       ocfs2 init service.  This runs after the o2cb init service has  started
177       the  cluster. The ocfs2 init service mounts all OCFS2 volumes listed in
178       /etc/fstab.
179
180       # chkconfig --add o2cb
181       o2cb 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
182
183       $ chkconfig --add ocfs2
184       o2cb 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
185
186       $ cat /etc/fstab
187        ...
188       /dev/sda1     /u01     ocfs2     _netdev,defaults     0  0
189        ...
