similar to: Dedicated MGS?

In 1.6.0, when creating a MDT, you could specify multiple --mgsnode options and it would failover between them. 1.6.3 only seems to take the last one and --mgsnode=192.168.1.252 at o2ib:192.168.1.253 at o2ib doesn''t seem to failover to the other node. Any ideas how to get around this? Robert Robert LeBlanc College of Life Sciences Computer Support Brigham Young University leblanc at

Hi, Our lustre environment is: 2.6.9-55.0.9.EL_lustre.1.6.3smp I would like to change recovery timeout from default value 250s to something longer I tried example from manual: set_timeout <secs> Sets the timeout (obd_timeout) for a server to wait before failing recovery. We performed that experiment on our test lustre installation with one OST. storage02 is our OSS [root at

Hi all, Here is the situation: I have 2 nodes MDS1 , MDS2 (10.0.0.22 , 10.0.0.23) I wish to use as failover MGS, active/active MDT with zfs. I have a jbod shelf with 12 disks, seen by both nodes as das (the shelf has 2 sas ports, connected to a sas hba on each node), and I am using lustre 2.4 on centos 6.4 x64 I have created 3 zfs pools: 1. mgs: # zpool

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

Hi, I would like to know what TCP/UDP ports should i keep open in my firewall policies on my MGS server such that I can have my MGS server fire-walled. Also if in a event of loss of MGT would it be possible to recreate the MGT without loosing data or bringing the filesystem down (i.e. by using cached information from MDT''s and OST''s) Thanks Anand

I am running on CentOS 5 distribution without adding any updates from CentOS. I am using the lustre 1.6.4.1 kernel and software. I have two NICs that run though different switches. I have the lustre options in my modprobe.conf to look like this: options lnet networks=tcp0(eth1,eth0) My MGS seems to be only listening on the first interface however. When I try and ping the 1st interface (eth1)

Chris, Perhaps you need to perform some write_conf like command. I''m not sure if this is needed in 1.6 or not.

I''m seeing this error message on one of my OSS''s but not the other three. Any idea what is causing it?

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

Greetings! I am working with Lustre-2.1.2 on RHEL 6.2. First I configured it using the standard defaults over TCP/IP. Everything worked very nicely usnig a real, static --mgsnode=a.b.c.x value which was the actual IP of the MGS/MDS system1 node. I am now trying to integrate it with Pacemaker-1.1.7. I believe I have most of the set-up completed with a particular exception. The "lctl

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

Hi, Lustre manual 1.6 v18 says that that in production lustre debug level should be set to fairly low. Manual also says that I can verify that level by running following commands: # sysctl portals.debug This gives ne following error error: ''portals.debug'' is an unknown key cat /proc/sys/lnet/debug gives output: ioctl neterror warning error emerg ha config console cat

Any recommendation about the sequence to umount multiple lustre file system with combined MGS/MDT or separate MGS, MDT. Thanks.

Hi I used lustre-1.8.3 for Centos5.4. I patched the kernel according to Lustre 1.8 operations manual.pdf. I have a problem when I want to implement quota. My cluster configuration is: 1. one MGS/MDS host (with two devices: sda and sdb,respectively) with the following commands: 1) mkfs.lustre --mgs /dev/sda 2) mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt/mgt 3) mkfs.lustre --fsname=lustre

Hi, We run four-node Lustre 2.3, and I needed to both change hardware under MGS/MDS and reassign an OSS ip. Just the same, I added a brand new 10GE network to the system, which was the reason for MDS hardware change. I ran tunefs.lustre --writeconf as per chapter 14.4 in Lustre Manual, and everything mounts fine. Log regeneration apparently works, since it seems to do something, but

I want to have a lustre client running on a system with 2.6.23.12 kernel. (The reason is that there is a special patch that is required for these 60+ Quad-Core AMD Opteron systems that we have and the patch is currently only available for this 2.6.23.12 kernel). Does anyone have a recommendation of how I should get a client and then a compatible server? For the server, we only need minimal

Hello, I''ve several problems with quota on our testcluster: When I set the quota for a person to a given value (e.g. the values which are provided in the operations manual), I''m able to write exact the amount which is set with setquota. But when I delete the files(file) I''m not able to use this space again. Here is what I''ve done in detail: lfs checkquota

Hi, On a few of the hpc cluster nodes, i am seeing a new lustre error that is pasted below. The volumes are working fine and there is nothing on the oss and mds to report.

Hi! We''ve started to poke and prod at Lustre 1.6.4.1, and it seems to mostly work (we haven''t had it OOPS on us yet like the earlier 1.6-versions did). However, we had this weird incident where an active client (it was copying 4GB files and running ls at the time) got evicted by the MDS and all OST''s. After a while logs indicate that it did recover the connection
