Thanks for opening the PMR. The problem is inside the gpfs base code and we are working on a fix right now. In the meantime until the fix is available we will use the PMR to propose/discuss potential work arounds.

I do have a DDN case open, though: 78804. If you are (as I suspect) a GPFS developer, do you mind if I cite your info from here in my DDN case to get them to open a PMR?

The actual command is tsctl shownodes up | $tr ',' '\n' | $sort -o $upnodefile But you can see in my tailed output that the last hostname listed is cut-off halfway through the hostname. Less obvious in the example, but true, is the fact that it?s only showing the first 120 hosts, when we have 403 nodes in our gpfs cluster. [root@sgate2 ~]# tsctl shownodes up | tr ',' '\n' | wc -l 120 [root@sgate2 ~]# mmlscluster | grep '\-opa' | wc -l 403 Perhaps more explicitly, it looks like `tsctl shownodes up` can only transmit 3983 characters. [root@sgate2 ~]# tsctl shownodes up | wc -c 3983 Again, I?m convinced this is a bug not only because the command doesn?t actually produce a list of all of the up nodes in our cluster; but because the last name listed is incomplete. [root@sgate2 ~]# tsctl shownodes up | tr ',' '\n' | tail -n 1 shas0260-opa.rc.int.col[root@sgate2 ~]# I?d continue my investigation within tsctl itself but, alas, it?s a binary with no source code available to me. :) I?m trying to get this opened as a bug / PMR; but I?m still working through the DDN support infrastructure.
