May be ocfs2 will replace ocfs in future with better feature in it.

Hi Michel,

Is there an OCFS version for Windows Server 2003 x64?

I have a 2-node cluster, 10.2.0.3.0, utilizing ASM on the aforementioned O/S. My objective is to have a clustered file-system because a couple of the databases would require exports and I know that some DATAPUMP processes, load balances (spawns) over the both nodes.

Regards,
seethem
