Re: [Xen-users] Problem with Xen and OCFS2
I have exactly the same issue and have posted a couple of times on this list without any response. I'm guessing there's something about file locking on OCFS2 that doesn't work quite right for the xm save process, but I could be wrong. I'm interested to see if you get any hits on this thread that help to track down the problem...

Hi All...
I'm testing a Xen solution on an OCFS2 SAN to store VM images.
If I try to save a VM asking to store the file in any Dom0 local dir (ex: /tmp) everything works fine, and I can properly restore the VM afterwards. Nevertheless, It I try to save a VM asking to store the saved file inside the OCFS2 SAN, it fails with the following messages in xend.log

It seems I'm not the only one complaining about this issue, according to the following threads:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2009-04/msg00670.html http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2008-09/msg00948.html
I wonder is there is some workaround for the problem?
Cheers Goncalo
