- Servers forgetting that they had array controllers
- Servers slowed down when recharging batteries
- Servers spontanious rebooting
- OCFS file header corruptions
- OCFS files not being freed
- Dell switches thinking for themselves and closing down ports
- Failovers that do not failover but powerdown

Need more features?

Some of the features have been solved (e.g. OCFS corruptions) in the 
latest patches, some will be in the future... Some problems come from 
the usage of EMC Powerpath in combination with OCFS.

If you haven't got the latest version of OCFS running try this:
mkdir <some_ocfs_fs>/test
touch <some_ocfs_fs>/test/some_file
rm <some_ocfs_fs>/test/some_file
rmdir <some_ocfs_fs>/test

You'll see the directory cannot be deleted.
