Hi Liu,

In a previous release we changed the configuration file format. You no longer need a per-server config file (/etc/pvfs2-server.conf), instead everything gets stored in the global config file (/etc/pvfs2- fs.conf). So when you're running genconfig, only give the first argument:

pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2-fs.conf

The pvfs2-server binary requires only the pvfs2-fs.conf file as an argument now as well.

I have installed the BerkeleyDB and compiled the server and client codes, also I have done this "ln /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.6/lib/libdb-4.6.so /usr/ lib/libdb- 4.6.so".Then I am trying to generate the configuration file on the metadata server. However, when I follow the following command it cannot run through.
Like:

PG006:/etc # pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2-fs.conf /etc/pvfs2-server.conf
Bad arguments.  See -h for help.

But when I change it into this:

PG006:/etc # pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2-server.conf

it can still run, and then I can continue other successive configs.
But the argument "/etc/pvfs2-fs.conf" is the target where the configurations I
have done are kept, right? So if I cannot define it, it would be very
troublesome to install the pvfs2 on a cluster system.

So can anyone help me? I am a novice to pvfs2. Thanks a lot!
