Description-en: tools for managing OCFS2 cluster filesystems
OCFS2 is a general purpose cluster filesystem. Unlike the initial release
of OCFS, which supported only Oracle database workloads, OCFS2 provides
full support as a general purpose filesystem. OCFS2 is a complete rewrite
of the previous version, designed to work as a seamless addition to the
Linux kernel.
.
This package installs the tools to manage the OCFS2 filesystem, including mkfs,
tunefs, fsck, debugfs, and the utilities to control the O2CB clustering stack.
