Chapter 3. Installing GFS

•

gulm

— Contains the GULM lock management userspace tools and libraries (an alter-

native to using CMAN and DLM).

•

iddev

— Contains libraries used to identify the file system (or volume manager) in

which a device is formatted

Also, you can optionally install Red Hat GFS on your Red Hat Cluster Suite. Red Hat GFS

consists of the following RPMs:

•

GFS

— The Red Hat GFS module

•

GFS-kernel

— The Red Hat GFS kernel module

•

gnbd

— The GFS Network Block Device module

•

gnbd-kernel

— Kernel module for the GFS Network Block Device

•

lvm2-cluster

— Cluster extensions for the logical volume manager

•

GFS-kernheaders

— GFS kernel header files

•

gnbd-kernheaders

—

gnbd

kernel header files

Tip

You can access the Red Hat Cluster Suite and Red Hat GFS products by using Red

Hat Network to subscribe to and access the channels containing the Red Hat Cluster

Suite and Red Hat GFS packages. From the Red Hat Network channel, you can manage

entitlements for your cluster nodes and upgrade packages for each node within the Red

Hat Network Web-based interface. For more information on using Red Hat Network, visit

the following URL:

http://rhn.redhat.com

You can install Red Hat Cluster Suite and Red Hat GFS RPMs using either of the following

methods:

•

Automatic RPM installation — Using

up2date

•

Custom RPM installation — Selectively installing RPMs using the

rpm

utility

For automatic RPM installation, refer to Section 3.1.1

Automatic RPM Installation

. For

custom RPM installation, refer to Section 3.1.2
