Dear All,

I have setup 2 node cluster on RHEL5.2 (32bit) + Quorum Partition +
GFS Partition.
i could make gfs file system but issues while trying to mount it. is
it due to GFS module not loaded?
unable to load GFS module.

below are the details, anyone has faced this issue before, please
suggest........

[root at quod-core1-uat ~]# mount -t gfs /dev/quoduat/rv /rv
/sbin/mount.gfs: error mounting /dev/mapper/quoduat-rv on /rv: No such device
[root at quod-core1-uat ~]#

GFS rpms are installed
[root at quod-core1-uat ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i gfs
kmod-gfs2-1.92-1.1.el5
kmod-gfs-0.1.23-5.el5
gfs-utils-0.1.17-1.el5
gfs2-utils-0.1.44-1.el5
[root at quod-core1-uat ~]#

couldn't find the gfs module loaded
[root at quod-core1-uat ~]# lsmod | grep -i gfs
gfs2                  346344  1 lock_dlm
configfs               28753  2 dlm
