Hello,
I'm a beginner of pvfs2. Now I'm reading the code of it and try to modify the code a little bit to
change the stripe style of the file system.

Can someone give me some tips or hint about where to start? Although I read the documents of pvfs but in fact, I can't even find the main function of the server and don't know where to start.

I'm appreciated any response from you.

Thank you very much.

I am cc'ing the pvfs2-developers mailing list; I think that is probably where this was meant to be posted.

Does question 6.5 on the faq help?

http://www.pvfs.org/cvs/pvfs-2-7-branch.build/doc/pvfs2-faq/pvfs2-faq.php#SECTION00075000000000000000

That describes how to change the distribution (and distribution parameters such as strip size) that will be selected for new files that are created in a given directory. If you need to actually implement a new distribution from scratch, then you can find examples of the current distribution implementations in src/io/description/dist*.c.
