Siji,
 
With Scale 5.x , you should be able to remove the server from the server list (mmchnsd) without stopping the cluster or unmounting the file system. Please refer to the mmchnsd manpage.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [gpfsug-discuss] Short-term Deactivation of NSD server
Date: Fri, Sep 4, 2020 12:03 PM
 
Hello GPFS Experts,
 
Say, is there any way to disable a particular NSD server outside of shutting down GPFS on the server, or shutting down the entire cluster and removing the NSD server from the list of NSD servers?
 
I'm finding that TSM activity on one of our NSD servers is stifling IO traffic through the server and resulting in intermittent latency for clients. If we could restrict cluster IO from going through this NSD server, we might be able to minimize or eliminate the latencies experienced by the clients while TSM activity is ongoing.
 
Thoughts?
 
 
 

 

Thanks,
