If I understand correctly with local heartbeat there is one heartbeat running per ocfs2 mount and this should still allow cluster storage to work. Global heartbeat only optimizes this to run one or more heartbeat devices for all ocfs2 mounts, so it should not be a strong requirement for running a shared cluster storage. -- Valentin
