I've used ocfs2 on all VMs for RAC testing as well with no problems.

Try
#/etc/init.d/o2cb unload
#/etc/init.d/o2cb configure

You can use "o2cb status" to see if its loaded at any time.

it is a 50 Gb file on VMware.  I can use "fdisk
/dev/sdb"  on CentOS 4.5 see the parations.  But
ocfs2consle can NOT see it.

I don't think permission has any problem.  The
permission on /dev/sdb are:

%ls -al sdb*
brw-rw----  1 root disk 8, 16 Jul 13 11:20 sdb
brw-rw----  1 root disk 8, 17 Jul 15 17:07 sdb1
brw-rw----  1 root disk 8, 18 Jul 15 17:07 sdb2

Do you have any documents how to setup OCFS and RAC on
VMware which you can share with us?

Thanks.
