Hi Please check the IO type before examining the IP address for the output of mmdiag --iohist. For the "lcl"(local) IO, the IP address is not necessary and we don't show it. Please check whether this is your case.

That the NSD server itself issued the I/O? Or ??? This only happens occasionally … and the way I discovered it was that our Python script that takes “mmdiag —iohist” output, looks up the client IP for any waits above the threshold, converts that to a hostname, and queries SLURM for whose jobs are on that client started occasionally throwing an exception … and when I started looking at the “mmdiag —iohist” output itself I do see times when there is no client IP address listed for a I/O wait.
