Lustre discuss - May 2006 - location of llmount.sh and other scripts

I have found that they pretty much work for the basic configuration.

As already mentioned use ldiskfs not ext3.

Skip the ''Quick Set Up'' section and start at ''Using
Supplied
Configuration Tools'' instead making your own configuration file.

There''s more files than that in lustre-lite-utils so you must have got 
a broken installation.

You might find the docs are not up-to-date. As an example, with the 
2.6.5/1.4.0 kernel, you don''t specify ext3 as the fstype when 
formatting the volume, you specify ldiskfs. But ldiskfs isn''t mentioned
anywhere in the docs.

Hi Jeffrey, Thank you for letting me know about that.

Are there more up-to-date docs anywhere that describe how to
configure and Lustre? Do you know where I can find the examples
referred to in the Wiki? It would be absolutely great if someone
updated the Wiki for the 2.6.5/1.4.0 system.

Thanks,

Lex

Hi,

Which package contains the files llmount.sh and local.sh.
llmount.sh is said to be located in /usr/lib/lustre/examples by
the HOWTO, but it isn''t clear to me which package deposits the
shell script there? The lustre-lite-utils package I downloaded
puts only a subdirectory named python in /usr/lib/lustre.

Thanks,

Lex
