Hello  All



I have been working on lustre for 3-4 months and now want to move CMD(clustered
meta data).i am using lustre-2.0.0.I was not able to  get any links or documents
which  could help me install it.I  came across some documents one which  asked
me to format the one MDT(drive) and mount it on 2 MDS and the MDS takes care of
notifying the client.Another document said i should format 2 (separate )drives
as MDT and then mount it on the 2 MDS.Also i read that CMD has a master MDS and
Slave MDS.Do we have to configure it differently ? Also i could get some rpms
for patched kernel from lustre download site for
lustre-ldiskfs-3.2.0-2.6.18_164.11.1.el5_lustre.2.0.0.1.x86_64.rpm
lustre-modules-2.0.0.1-2.6.18_164.11.1.el5_lustre.2.0.0.1.x86_64.rpm,
kernel-2.6.18-164.11.1.el5_lustre.2.0.0.1.x86_64.rpm.But i am not sure if i can
use the same patched kernel i was using for Single MDS setup. I am not exactly
able to figure out how this should be done.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks
