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
