[Linux-cluster] CLVMD without GFS

[brem belguebli]

Hello Alfredo,

For the exclusive bypass, I have opened a bugzilla ticket. Hopefully it'll
be fixed (enhanced)0

For your second point, I'm not sure to ubndestand what you're saying.

My concern is to avoid manual activation on the wrong node, not an
accidental rgmanager activation.

Even if you configure your FS resource as exclusive, if it is possible, this
won't be of any effect with ext3 outside of rgmanager control as it is not
cluster aware.
