Greetings,
I''m trying to get Lustre 1.8.1.1 working, but have been running into
nothing
but trouble.
Long story short, i''m trying to mount the OST on the OSS, but i keep
getting
this error:
[root at oss ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/lustre/OST /lustre/OSS
mount.lustre: mount /dev/lustre/OST at /lustre/OSS failed: Input/output
error
Is the MGS running?
What i don''t understand is, the MGS is running as far as i know. I
followed
this guide
http://manual.lustre.org/manual/LustreManual16_HTML/ConfiguringLustreExamples.html.
After that didn''t work, i tried this guide
http://unixfoo.blogspot.com/2009/11/lustre-cluster-filesystem-quick-setup.html,
and that didn''t work either. I have the MDS and MGS on the same system.
In the below walk-through of what i''ve done from start to finish, it is
clear that i mounted the MGS partition, which, if i understand lustre
correctly, should start the MGS service, yet the OSS complains with an I/O
error.
I''ve been struggling with this for some time, and am near giving up.
Any
help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dusty
