Hi,

Thanks for your quick response.
My /etc/modprobe.d/lustre now contains

options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0),tcp1(eth1)

I updated the partitions with the following:-

mgsnode=172.16.0...@tcp,172.17.11....@tcp1

On both of the MDT's lctl list_nids reports (note they have the above lnet entry in their /etc/modprobe.d/lustre file):-

172.16.0...@tcp
172.17.11....@tcp1

On clients, for either network, they do not have the lnet entry and lctl list_nids reports on the local machine ip address. However, clients on the tcp0 network can mount the lustre partition. Clients on the tcp1 network cannot mount via the tcp1 IP address but can via the tcp network (with a another machine routing the traffic).

Do I need the same lnet module entry everywhere to make this work ?

Regards

Phil.

Hi we would like the lustre servers available to two networks, one on eth0 (192.168.1.0/24) the other on eth1(192.168.8.0/22), they are on different networks.

I've tried the following:-

1. Create /etc/modprobe.d/lustre that contains
options lnet networks=tcp0,tcp1

This probably needs to be like:

options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0),tcp1(eth1)

2. Used tunefs.lustre to specify the ip address of both interfaces of the MGS/MDT is on, i.e. tunefs.lustre --eraseparams --mgsnode=<net1>@tcp0,<net2>@tcp1 /dev/md5
3. Started up lustre

The clients could connect on network tcp0, but the clients that would connect via the IP address of network tcp1 could not.

What am I missing ?

Thanks

Phil.
