I believe both single quote and double quote work the same. I can see
the right parameter is being passed to the underline mkfs.ext2 with
double quote.
Anyways, to be careful, I just tried with single quote and still got the
same result.
What's the version you are using? I'm using 1.5.97.

I'm using 1.5.97 as well. Sorry, I don't know what's wrong with your
setup. All I can say is the mkfsoptions seem to work for me.

Just to show that the --mkfsoptions="-i 2048" is not working as
expected or maybe I'm not doing it right.
First, I did a mkfs on the mdt partition with the default. From the
command outputs can tell that it's using 4096 as you described. And
"lfs df -i" says that there are 7743 inodes created. So far so good.
Then, I did another mkfs on the same partition, and this time I set
the bytes-per-node to 2048. Supposely, the number of inodes
should double.
But "lfs df -i" says only 6489 inode are created. It
actually created
fewer inodes!

Subject: RE: [Lustre-discuss] No space left while running
createmany
Hi,
I had a look at mke2fs code in e2fsprogs-1.39(since lustre
eventually
uses ext3 to create the filesystem) and this is how lustre would
create the default number of inodes.
For small filesystems(as is your case), it creates a inode
for every
4096 bytes of space on the file system. This can also be
specified by
the -i option to mke2fs. So in your case, with a
32 MB partition you would have 32MB/4096 = 8192 inodes by
default. So
using a "--mkfsoptions -i 2048" option to mkfs.lustre
would give you
16384 inodes enough to create more than 10000 files.
For large filesytems, an inode is created for every 1Mb of
filesystem
space and for even for larger filesystems an inode is created for
every 4MB of filesystem space.
Yes, tune2fs cannot change the number of inodes in your
filesystem.
This option can only be set while formatting the filesystem.
Regards,
Kalpak.

tune2fs on the MDT partition says that there are still free

general, how the default number of inodes is calculated for
a lustre
file system? I guess it can be set by "mkfsoptions", but
not through
tunefs.lustre though.

Sounds like you're running outta inodes
Do: tune2fs -l <raw_device> to see how many inodes the thing
supports

Subject: [Lustre-discuss] No space left while running createmany
I created a lustre file system with MDT on a 32MB
partition and one
OST on a 480MB partition and mounted the file system on
two nodes.
While running the createmany test program on the client node, it
always stops at 10000 files with a No space left error. But the
strange thing is that df shows both partition have lt of
free space.
