We have 3 machines that live on both the private network where the bulk of the lustre clients and all the servers are located, and several clients on the second network of the 3 machines that also need to access the lustre file system. We do this via lnet routing. From the modprobe.conf on each machine:
Typical clients on the "primary" network: options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0) The 3 router machines: options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0),tcp2(eth1.562) forwarding="enabled" The remote clients: options lnet networks="tcp2(eth0)" routes="tcp0 141.211.101.[9,11,9...@tcp2" check_routers_before_use=1 auto_down=1 dead_router_check_interval=50 live_router_check_interval=100 On the OSS machines: options lnet networks=tcp0(bond0.4010) routes="tcp2 10.10.1.[50-...@tcp0" bob On 1/4/2011 9:48 AM, DEGREMONT Aurelien wrote: > Hello > > I'm not sure at all that IP-based routing will behave correctly with Lustre. > What I would advice instead is to used LNET router instead, between your > 10.x network and the other one.
