Hi All (but mostly Sven),

I stumbled across this great gem:

files.gpfsug.org/presentations/2014/UG10_GPFS_Performance_Session_v10.pdf

and I'm wondering which, if any, of those tuning parameters are still relevant with the 4.2.3 code. Specifically for a CNFS cluster. I'm exporting a gpfs fs as an NFS root to 1k nodes. The boot storm is particularly ugly and the storage doesn't appear to be bottlenecked.

I see a lot of waiters like these:

Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 2881 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 26231 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 26146 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 18637 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 25013 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 27879 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 26553 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 25334 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock' Waiting 0.0009 sec since 20:41:31, monitored, thread 25337 InodePrefetchWorkerThread: on ThCond 0x1800635A120 (LkObjCondvar), reason 'waiting for LX lock'

and I'm wondering if there's anything immediate one would suggest to help with that.
