Hi, I noticed some inconsistency in the documentation. In each example of lustre configuration you say that OST is started by the following command. $ mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt/test/ost0 Whereas in the section 4.1 Expanding the File System by Adding OSTs you say something different: To add OSTs to existing Lustre file systems: 1 Add a new ost by passing on the following commands $ mkfs.lustre --fsname=spfs --ost --mgsnode=mds16@tcp0 /dev/sda $ mkdir -p /mnt/test/ost0 $ mount -t spfs /dev/sda /mnt/test/ost0 Is that a typo? cheers Wojciech Turek Mr Wojciech Turek Assistant System Manager University of Cambridge High Performance Computing service email: wjt27@cam.ac.uk tel. +441223763517 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
