The discrepancies between lfs df -h and df -h I think that largely have to do with the way GB are calculated. Ether based on 1000 or 1024. Remember you lose about 5% of each underlying volume due to the 5% reserved for root.

Hi,

Just got a smaller Lustre system running with 1 mdt/mgs and 2 ost's. On the osts i've added 1x10GB disk and 1x20GB disk on each system and formatted and mounted them as /mnt/ost1-4 (ost1) and /mnt/ost2-3 (ost2). I've also mounted the lustre system on the mdt/mgs server with mount -t lustre [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/testfs /mnt/lustre. So far so good, however df -h only reports 9/60GB avail where lsf df -h reports 54.4G available.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/testfs
                       60G   50G  9.0G  85% /mnt/lustre

vs

filesystem summary:      59.1G      4.7G     54.4G    7% /mnt/lustre

I cant find anything on this in the lists or manual, but do you have to have equal size disks to get all the usable space available to the system mounting lustre? Is this somehow connected to stripe- size or some automatic failover settings. My original intent was to create a large storage area using lustre for numerous clients to mount and use as diskspace.
