Does `lfs mirror create` work for directories in 2.11?
Tried it, nope :(
# lfs mirror create -N2 ./mirrored/
lfs mirror create: cannot create composite file './mirrored/': Is a directory
lfs mirror create: cannot create composite file './mirrored/': Is a directory
But documentation says it's good to go...
> lfs mirror create <--mirror-count|-N[mirror_count]
> [setstripe_options|[--flags<=flags>]]> ... <filename|directory>
> [setstripe_options|[--flags<=flags>]]> ... <filename|directory>

It is best to leave the MDT recordsize at the default. For most files it will not matter (too small), but for Data on MDT you also don't want a large recordsize.,
Cheers, AndreasDear All,
I have a related question. The documentation says nothing about the recommended recordsize for MDTs with ZFS backend. Are there any recommendation? Or is data on MDTs stored in a way that the recordsize does not matter?
Thanks,

Cheers, AndreasHello,
I have always been using ZFS record size to 1MB with Lustre on top of ZFS. Anyway it is possible to set it to more than 1MB. May this have any benefit in performance and is it recommended to set for example:
echo 4194304 > /sys/module/zfs/parameters/zfs_max_recordsizezfs set recordsize=4m zpoolThank you.
