Ah be careful! looking at the man page for mmchconfig “nsdCksumTraditional:

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/STXKQY_5.0.1/com.ibm.spectrum.scale.v5r01.doc/bl1adm_mmchconfig.htm


  *   Enabling this feature can result in significant I/O performance 
degradation and a considerable increase in CPU usage.

On the other hand, we are very excited by this (from the README):

        File systems: Traditional NSD nodes and servers can use checksums



            NSD clients and servers that are configured with IBM Spectrum Scale 
can use checksums



            to verify data integrity and detect network corruption of file data 
that the client



            reads from or writes to the NSD server. For more information, see 
the



            nsdCksumTraditional and nsdDumpBuffersOnCksumError attributes in 
the topic mmchconfig command.


Finally!  Thanks, IBM (seriously)…

Kevin

I’d normally be excited by this, since we do aggressively apply GPFS upgrades.  
But it’s worth noting that no released version of Scale works with the latest 
RHEL7 kernel yet (anything >= 3.10.0-780). So if you’re also in the habit of 
aggressively upgrading RedHat then you’re going to have to wait for 5.0.1-1 
before you can resume that practice.
