Well, in general OCFS is not a real filesystem - by "real", I mean, "intended for general purpose use". When you pick through the source, even the 1.0.9 source, you can see that all of the foundation for a full filesystem is there. It just hasn't been written yet. This is the same reason you need custom utilities like dd, cp, mv, etc. on an ocfs filesystem.

Rumor has it OCFS 2.0 is a full-featured filesystem.

Thanks,
Matt
