I'm sure we changed this recently, I think all the CES nodes nerd to be down, but I don't think the whole cluster.
We certainly set it for the first tine "live". Maybe I depends on the code version.

But when changing it later, it will require the stopping the full cluster first. -jf man. 5. des. 2016 kl. 15.26 skrev Sander Kuusemets <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>: Hello, I have been thinking about setting up a CES cluster on my GPFS custer for easier data distribution. The cluster is quite an old one - since 3.4, but we have been doing rolling upgrades on it. 4.2.0 now, ~200 nodes Centos 7, Infiniband interconnected. The problem is this little line in Spectrum Scale documentation: The CES shared root directory cannot be changed when the cluster is up and running. If you want to modify the shared root configuration, you must bring the entire cluster down. Does this mean that even the first time I'm setting CES up, I have to pull down the whole cluster? I would understand this level of service disruption when I already had set the directory before and now I was changing it, but on an initial setup it's quite an inconvenience. Maybe there's a less painful way for this?
