Subject: Re: [Lustre-discuss] Lustre 1.6.0.1 in Ubuntu Fiesty
See here:
http://www.pci.uni-heidelberg.de/tc/usr/bernd/downloads/lustre/1.6/
This should support up to linux-2.6.21, though I still do most tests with
2.6.20.
After I finished the install instructions above,
I tried to mount the lustre file system on MDS server, but failed..
Here are the commands and the error messages:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# mkfs.lustre --fsname=spfs --mdt --mgs /dev/hdb
Permanent disk data:
Target: spfs-MDTffff
Index: unassigned
Lustre FS: spfs
Mount type: ldiskfs
Flags: 0x75
(MDT MGS needs_index first_time update )
Persistent mount opts: errors=remount-ro,iopen_nopriv,user_xattr
Parameters:
checking for existing Lustre data: not found
device size = 20480MB
formatting backing filesystem ldiskfs on /dev/hdb
target name spfs-MDTffff
4k blocks 0
options -J size=400 -i 4096 -I 512 -q -O dir_index -F
mkfs_cmd = mkfs.ext2 -j -b 4096 -L spfs-MDTffff -J size=400 -i 4096 -I
512 -q -O dir_index -F /dev/hdb
mkfs.lustre: Unable to mount /dev/hdb: No such device
Is the ldiskfs module available?
mkfs.lustre FATAL: failed to write local files
mkfs.lustre: exiting with 19 (No such device)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems the ldiskfs module does not load correctly.
Could anyone help?
Thanks~~~
I'm using Ubuntu Feisty as testing/development system and with
unionfs-fuse
(shameless self-advertisement ;) ) also as diskless server.
If you are using an amd64-system I could also upload debs of the utils.
Cheers,
Bernd
