Hi Bob,

I think I found the bug and have a fix for this, but I just want to make sure. Do you remember the last time you restarted the pvfs2 servers? I think this error is caused at server startup on ppc64 after at least 512 files are created. If your servers were re- started recently (with a populated file system), then I know what's wrong. Otherwise, if they were started once when the file system was created and have been running ever since, I've just found a bug elsewhere in our code, and I'll need to keep looking for yours. Let me know.

Thanks,

Hi Bob,

Is this from a new storage space, or had things been working and then you started getting the permission denied errors? If its a storage space that's been around for a while, did you migrate from 1.3.x or 1.4.0?

Based on the logfiles you sent, it doesn't look like a kernel module problem. We haven't seen those specific problems with 1.5.1, but we didn't do much testing of the 1.5.1 release on 64 bit platforms (esp. ppc). Would it be possible to get access to that system so that I can do some debugging?

Thanks,

This is weird. I appear to getting permission denied on every other file to be copied from a local filesystem to the PVFS2 filesystem. This ring a bell with anyone?

Thanks,

NOTE: The aggregate total and available statistics are calculated based
on an algorithm that assumes data will be distributed evenly; thus
the free space is equal to the smallest I/O server capacity
multiplied by the number of I/O servers.  If this number seems
unusually small, then check the individual server statistics below
to look for problematic servers.
