Hello, the docs state for a failover setup that the MDS and MDT should be on seperate nodes.
Therefore we would like to know what a "good" scenario could be. Does it make sense or is it even possible to setup a MDS with failover capabilities, i.e. something like (mirrored with DRBD here for example): On MDS1LUSTRE: mkfs.lustre --fsname=foo --mgs --failnode=MDS2LUSTRE /dev/drbd0 On MDT1LUSTRE: mkfs.lustre --fsname=foo --mdt --failnode=MGS2LUSTRE /dev/drbd0 That counts for 4 machines. Would that be a feasible setup or is it just overkill besides the costs ? What would be the proper setup scenario if the above is not possible ? (Avoiding a single point of failure for the MDS) Thanks and Regards Heiko _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
