Re: SLES 9 SP4 and OCFS2

Hi Arun,

has it really been 1 year and 12 days since the URL of your guide was
posted last on this list? ;-)

OK, thanks for the advice, I'll try my luck on the Oracle side - though
I'm running SAP ;-)

Besides, I read the link
http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2/dist/documentation/ocfs2_faq.html
and it did not help me...

Regards,
Werner
