Quota setup fails because of OST ordering
Hi all, after installing a Lustre test file system consisting of 34 OSTs, I encountered a strange error when trying to set up quotas: lfs quotacheck gave me an "Input/Output error", while in /var/log/kern.log I found a Lustre error LustreError: 20807:0:(quota_check.c:227:lov_quota_check()) lov idx 32 inactive Indeed, in /proc/fs/lustre/lov/.../target_obd all 34 OSTs were listed

bad 1.6.3 striped write performance
Hi, I''m seeing what can only be described as dismal striped write performance from lustre 1.6.3 clients :-/ 1.6.2 and 1.6.1 clients are fine. 1.6.4rc3 clients (from cvs a couple of days ago) are also terrible. the below shows that the OS (centos4.5/5) or fabric (gigE/IB) or lustre version on the servers doesn''t matter - the problem is with the 1.6.3 and 1.6.4rc3 client kernels

How to remove OST permanently?
All, I''ve added a new 2.2 TB OST to my cluster easily enough, but this new disk array is meant to replace several smaller OSTs that I used to have of which were only 120 GB, 500 GB, and 700 GB. Adding an OST is easy, but how do I REMOVE the small OSTs that I no longer want to be part of my cluster? Is there a command to tell luster to move all the file stripes off one of the nodes?

Getting a list of files on down OST
Hi Guys, I''m trying to figure out a way to get a list of files with objects present on an OST that is down. Normally one could do: lfs find -O <OST> dir but that is giving us Input/output errors (I assume because the OST is down). Is there a good way to get a list of objects (Maybe from the MDS?), what OSTs they are on, and correlate them with files? Thanks, Mark -- Mark

Adding OST to online Lustre with quota
Hello, we wounder whether is it possible to add OSTs to the Lustre with quota support without making it offline? We tried to do this but all quota information was lost. Despite the fact that OST was formatted with quota support we are receiving this error message: Lustre: 3743:0:(lproc_quota.c:447:lprocfs_quota_wr_type()) lustrefs-OST0016: quotaon failed because quota files

OSTs inactive on one client (only)
Hi everyone, I have seen this question here before, but without a very satisfactory answer. One of our half a dozen clients has lost access to a set of OSTs: > lfs osts OBDS:: 0: lustre-OST0000_UUID ACTIVE 1: lustre-OST0001_UUID ACTIVE 2: lustre-OST0002_UUID INACTIVE 3: lustre-OST0003_UUID INACTIVE 4: lustre-OST0004_UUID INACTIVE 5: lustre-OST0005_UUID ACTIVE 6: lustre-OST0006_UUID ACTIVE

How to track down a latency/timing problem
Hello Lustre Experts I am trying to solve a problem with very slow "ls" and other big amount of file operations but good overall read/write rates. We are running a small cluster of 3 OSSs with 9 OSTs, 1MDS (with SSD MDT) and currently two clients. All server nodes are centos 5.2 with lustre 1.8.1 while the clients are centos 5.4 with lustre 1.8.3. All components are networked with DDR

How to bypass failed OST without blocking?
Hi I want my lustre do such things during OST failed: if some file has stripe data on th failed OST, any operation on the file will return IO error without blocking, and also at this moment I can create and read/write new file or read/write files which have no stripe data on the failed OST without blocking. What should I do ? How to configure? thanks! swin -------------- next part

obdfilter/datafs-OST0000/recovery_status
I''m evaluating lustre. I''m trying what I think is a basic/simple ethernet config. with MDT and OST on the same node. Can someone tell me if the following (~150 second recovery occurring when small 190 GB OST is re-mounted) is expected behavior or if I''m missing something? I thought I would send this and continue with the eval while awaiting a response. I''m using

Balancing I/O Load
We are seeing some disturbing (probably due to our ignorance) behavior from lustre 1.6.3 right now. We have 8 OSSs with 3 OSTs per OSS (24 physical LUNs). We just created a brand new lustre file system across this configuration using the default mkfs.lustre formatting options. We have this file system mounted across 400 clients. At the moment, we have 63 IOzone threads running

No space left on device on not full filesystem
Hello, We have running lustre 1.8.1 and have met "No space lest on device" error when uploading 500 Gb small files (less then 100 Kb each). The problem seems to depends on the number of files. If we remove one file, we can create one new file, even with Gb size; but if we haven''t remove something we can''t create even very little file, as an example using touch

Query on improving throughput
Dear All, We have a small setup of lustre with 7 OSTs on 8gb FC . We have kept one OST per FC port. We have lustre 2.3 with CentOS 6.3. There are 32 clients which access this over FDR IB. We can achieve more than 1.3GB/s throughput using IOR, without cache. Which is roughly 185MB/s per OST. We wanted to know if this is normal. Should we expect more from 8gb FC port. OSTs are on 8+2 RAID6 .

NFS Performance
Hi, With help from Oleg we got the right patches applied and NFS working well. Maximum performance was about 60 MB/sec. Last week that dropped to about 12.5 MB/sec and I cannot find a reason. Lustre clients all obtain 100+ MB/sec on GigE. Each OST is good for 270 MB/sec. When mounting the client on one of the OSSs I get 230 MB/sec. Seems the speed is there. How can NFS and Lustre be tuned

tunefs.lustre --print fails on mounted mdt/ost with mmp
Just checking to be sure this isn''t a known bug or problem. I couldn''t find a bz for this, but it would appear that tunefs.lustre --print fails on a lustre mdt or ost device if mounted with mmp.

Lost folders after changing MDS
OK, so our old MDS had hardware issues so I configured a new MGS / MDS on a VM (this is a backup lustre filesystem and I wanted to separate the MGS / MDS from OSS of the previous), and then did this: For example: mount -t ldiskfs /dev/old /mnt/ost_old mount -t ldiskfs /dev/new /mnt/ost_new rsync -aSv /mnt/ost_old/ /mnt/ost_new # note trailing slash on ost_old/ If you are unable to connect both
