We use this on our lustre 2.5.3 but now your apache user uid and gid have to be 
known on mds server

Hi,

I'm wondering if there are any developments on this front.

We also NFS export some lustre filesystems from a client to an apache server so 
that users can link to their large datasets on their personal websites.  This 
has been working for years for us using lustre 1.8.

We recently built some new systems using lustre 2.5.3 and now this 
functionality is broken in the same way that Eric describes - symlinks to 
directories and files on the lustre filesystem are denied by the apache server. 
 This doesn't seem to be due to our apache configuration since symlinks to 
files and directories in ordinary (non-lustre) nfs-mounted filesystems work.  
Also the nfs-exported filesystems behave normally - you can copy files in, as 
well as create and delete files as you wish.
The only problems arise in relation to apache access.

We've also noticed that whenever the forbidden access messages comes up in the 
browser /var/log/messages on the lustre client spits out this error 
consistently:

Mar  8 19:53:14 nuexport02 kernel: LustreError: 
2626:0:(mdc_locks.c:918:mdc_enqueue()) ldlm_cli_enqueue: -13

This appears to be related to file locking looking at the code...

We have also built a test apache server with lustre client modules that 
directly mount our lustre filesystems.  symlinks to the directories in the 
lustre fs within /var/www/html similarly return the forbidden access message 
with the above mdc_locks error.

We're running CentOS 6 with lustre 2.5.3 on the client and server side.  To 
repeat, direct client mounts of the lustre filesystems behave normally as well 
as nfs-exported mounts.  Only apache access to symlinks of files on a lustre 
filesystem give trouble.

Are there any special nfs export flags that can be set to help in /etc/exports?

Thanks for any help or insight!

Regards,

John
