A Lustre-MGS can have more than one network address (NID). Different NIDs of the same server are separated by commas. Here, you want to configure NIDs for different servers. Those either have to be separated with a colon. Alternatively, you can just use option --mgsnode twice with different arguments. In your case, try mkfs.lustre --fsname=lustre --ost --failnode=192.168.5....@tcp0 --mgsnode=192.168.5....@tcp0 --mgsnode=192.168.5....@tcp0 /dev/lustre-ost1-dg1/lv1 Regards, Daniel. _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lustre.org/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
