GFS for FC3...

[K.C. Chan]

Does any know of any ref to get GFS on FC3? I have tried this site, http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/ and dowloaded the source, however compiling against current kernel bombs out. Search Google yield nothing, other than the fact other are having similar problem. Thanks.

Hi,

What version of the kernel is the GFS actually tested or developed with?

If you check the old_index.html page at the bottom of the current index.html page the list the "current kernel" version.

On the new page, no info at all about it.

Better ask a project member or the maillinglist...


From http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/old-index.html

Source code
There are multiple CVS branches that contain varying levels of stability.


RHEL4 - Stable branch used for RHEL4 cluster packages.
cvs -d :pserver:cvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cluster checkout -r RHEL4 cluster

builds against: kernel-2.6.9-5.EL.src.rpm


STABLE - Stable branch that builds against the latest kernel.org kernels.
cvs -d :pserver:cvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cluster checkout -r STABLE cluster

builds against: latest vanilla kernel


HEAD - Unstable branch containing bleeding edge code. The components do not all work together yet.
cvs -d :pserver:cvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/cluster checkout cluster

builds against: latest vanilla kernel

You can also give a try to CENTOS GFS.

GFS was, I believe created and compiled on the 2.6 kernel but was ported back to the 2.4 kernel and is available on Red Hat's site.

It costs $499 and comes with a license to the clustering suite.

All,
I am running FC3 stock kernel. Could this be the problem?
