Ok, so after installing all of this stuff I noticed that I have init
scripts for both "gfs" and "gfs2" in /etc/init.d, and that "gfs" is
enabled while "gfs2" is disabled.

Which of these should I be using? I know (see output below) that I
explicitly installed gfs-utils. I don't see anywhere that I installed
gfs2-utils.

Thanks,

Kevin

Excellent! Thanks :) I was doing the groupinstall...

Don't be. I suspect you have done a "yum groupinstall" and found that
the default set of packages for that group includes kmod-gfs and kmod-
gnbd which are kernel modules for the stock kernel, which is why they
pull that in.

Nope, you just either have to:

Live with both kernels existing, do what you did before, then do "yum
install kmod-gfs-xen kmod gnbd-xen" to add the kernel modules for your
Xen kernel as well.

or

Don't use "yum groupinstall" use "yum install Global_File_System-en-US
gfs-utils gnbd kmod-gfs-xen kmod-gnbd-xen lvm2-cluster" to get the
same thing. (sneaky mode!)

The PAE kernel is also supported as well.
