Servers forgetting that they had array controllers
Servers slowed down when recharging batteries
Servers spontanious rebooting
OCFS file header corruptions
OCFS files not being freed
Dell switches thinking for themselves and closing down ports
Failovers that do not failover but powerdown

Need more features?

Some of the features have been solved (e.g. OCFS corruptions) in the latest patches, some will be in the future... Some problems come from the usage of EMC Powerpath in combination with OCFS.

If you haven't got the latest version of OCFS running try this: mkdir <some_ocfs_fs>/test
touch <some_ocfs_fs>/test/some_file
rm <some_ocfs_fs>/test/some_file
rmdir <some_ocfs_fs>/test

You'll see the directory cannot be deleted.
