No. DO NOT do this. Please don't try to re-invent how Lustre failover works. > But I really do not know if writeconf is damage to the data or the fs? You should not use writeconf in this manner. I believe the instructions to which you are referring (changing a server NID) explicitly says that you must shut down the entire filesystem before you do any writeconfs and then you must bring the servers all back up before you bring any clients up. This is a lot more traumatic to the users than simply configuration failover the way it's supposed to work. b.
