you can do that. Pretend you are setting up the client on any arbitrary node, and when you mount the filesystem, you can give the server's address just like you would for any other client. - configure and build pvfs with kernel support - set up servers - load kernel module - start pvfs2-client - mount -t pvfs2 tcp://server-address:3334/pvfs2-fs /<mountpoint> ==rob -- Rob Latham Mathematics and Computer Science Division A215 0178 EA2D B059 8CDF Argonne National Lab, IL USA B29D F333 664A 4280 315B _______________________________________________ Pvfs2-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.beowulf-underground.org/mailman/listinfo/pvfs2-users
