Lustre discuss - Jun 2009 - Using the 'lctl conf_param' command

Hi all,

I am playing with the use of the ''lctl conf_param'' command,
and I have
some doubts that I would like to put clear:

- I found through the Lustre Operations Manual the following possible
list to parameters to configure. 

      sys.timeout
      lov.stripesize
      lov.stripecount
      osc.max_dirty_mb
      failover.mode
      failover.node

  Are they the only ones available?

  How can I see the settings that have been done this way?

- Are the parameters used with ''lctl conf_param'', the same as
the ones
used with commands ''mkfs.lustre'' and
''tunefs.lustre'' with the option
--param?

- Is ''lctl conf_param'' an alternative (though permanent) way
of doing
settings to using ''lctl set_param''? 

I am a bit confused about the different ways of doing configurations. If
someone could give a little explanation it would be of a great help.

Cheers
