Hi Lukas, Do you want to use these interfaces together as a logical unit? The syntax below would construct two separate LNET networks.
Additionally, you would need to qualify the mount path on the client side to bind Lustre to a specific LNET instance, i.e. 'mount /mnt/lustre [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/lustre', or else it will default to the first available LNET instance. The order doesn't really matter in the module declaration, though. Looking at my OSS nodes, I can see entries in /proc/fs/lustre/devices, as well as in the output of 'df'. Did you specify a file system type? Normally when mounting either an OST or an MDT, you need to provide a '-t lustre' argument to 'mount', or list that as the fstype in /etc/fstab. Otherwise, I'm assuming it mounts the device as ext3, which works, but isn't usable by Lustre. hth, Klaus On 9/24/08 12:41 PM, "Lukas Hejtmanek" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>did etch on stone tablets: > Hello, > > I have some difficulties to setup a server acting as metadata server and OST > server.
