Hi,
The system has heavy load (the pvfs2-server cpu% being over
50-90 range) with over 800+ clients. The amount of data is over 1.7TB in
the file system. The total number of files/symlinks/directories are over
8000. The number of symlinks is over 4000+. The application typically
accesses the files through the symlinks. I am not sure about the block
size that the application uses, but I would assume that it is small i.e.
about 4k-8k range.
Thanks,
uday

cluster, AttrCache settings
Hi,
What else is going on on the system, what is in the directory, etc?
It's fairly unusual for things to take this long.
