Hi Mike,
You can indeed add a new server without reformatting or corrupting the
file system. It will not automatically load balance, although new
files will automatically begin to use storage on the new server.

Hi,
Quick question that I can not seem to find an answer. Can I add
new IO server to an
existing PVFS2 filesystem without reformatting the entire filesystem/
corrupting the
existing data? Also, will it over time balance the load over the
entire filesystem?
Thanks!
