Hi Zander,
We have a git repository. Would you be interested in adding any
Zabbix custom metrics gathering to GPFS to it?

Hi All,
As suggested when joining here's a quick intro to me, who I work for
and how we use GPFS.
I'm currently a Storage System Administrator for EBI, the European
Bioinformatics Institute. We've recently started using GPFS via a
three GSS26 system storage cluster connecting to our general purpose
compute farm.
GPFS is new for EBI and very new to me as well as HPC in general
coming from an ISP networking > General/Windows Sys admin > VMWare sys
admin > NetApp sys admin > storage sys admin with a spattering of
Linux spread throughout this time of around 17 years.
We are using the GPFS system as a scratch area for our users to run IO
intensive work loads on. We have been impressed with some of the
figures we've seen but are still in the tweaking stages, for example
trying to resolve excessive expulsions (looking resolved), frame
overruns and bonding issues.
We monitor a number of metrics via Zabbix which a colleague (the main
admin) setup. We work closely with the compute team who manage the
compute farm and the client GPFS cluster configured on it. We're a
RHEL shop.
I've joined mainly to lurk tbh to see if I can pick up any tips and
tweaks.
Hope that's enough!
cheers
Zander
