Description Nohez Poonawala 2006-02-09 14:11:13 UTC
ocfs2 version in SuSE10.1 Beta3 kernel is 1.1.7-SLES and in linus kernel is 1.3.3. 

Is it possible to get upgraded ocfs2 in SuSE10.1 Beta4 ?
Comment 1 Chris L Mason 2006-02-09 14:25:06 UTC
This is intentional.  ocfs2 was put into the mainline kernel very late in the SLES10/SUSE 10.1 cycle, and oracle asked us to keep the older rev level for certifications purposes.  We are mirroring bug fixes from the mainline kernel into our code base (with help from oracle).

So, the version number is different, but our ocfs2 will be updated regularly for fixes and improvements.
