Yes, and you can always see them with

If you have root, you can change them using tunefs.lustre after the file system 
has been shut down.

I've done this a number of times to test various lnet configs.

Do you have any special interests, like: writing from a true MPI job; 
collective vs. independent; one-file-per-processor vs. a single, share 
file; or writing via MPI-IO vs. posix?

I'm having a similar issue with lustre 1.6.4.2 and infiniband. Under  
load, the clients hand about every 10 minutes which is really bad for  
a production machine. The only way to fix the hang is to reboot the  
server. My users are getting extremely impatient :-/

I see this on the clients-

LustreError: 2814:0:(client.c:975:ptlrpc_expire_one_request()) @@@  
timeout (sent at 1202756629, 301s ago)  [EMAIL PROTECTED] x1796079/

Lustre: data-OST0000-osc-ffff810139ce4800: Connection to service data-

using this service will wait for recovery to complete.
LustreError: 11-0: an error occurred while communicating with  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The ost_connect operation failed with -16
LustreError: 11-0: an error occurred while communicating with  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The ost_connect operation failed with -16

I've increased the timeout to 300seconds and it has helped marginally.

It means OST could not response the request(unlink, o6) in 300 seconds, 
so client disconnect the import to OST and try to reconnect.
Does this disconnection always happened when do unlink ? Could you 
please post process trace and console msg of OST at that time?

Thanks

Hi Aaron;

We set the timeout a big number (1000secs) on our 400 node cluster
(mostly o2ib, some tcp clients).  Until we did this, we had loads
of evictions.  In our case, it solved the problem.

Cheers,
Craig

EIDRM (Identifier removed) means that your MDS has a user database
(/etc/passwd and /etc/group) that is missing the particular user ID.

So far it's helped. If this doesn't fix it I'm going to apply the  
patch mentioned here - 
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/attachment.cgi?id=14006&action=edit 
  I'll let you know how it goes. If you'd like a copy of the patched  
version let me know. Are you running RHEL/SLES? what version of the OS  
and lustre?
