Hello,

 I am trying to do some "load tests" with pvfs2, but find the following
in the logs (I produced them with 'pvfs2-set-debugmask -m /mnt/test
"network,server,client"'):

Client:

[D 11:34:10.421223] [INFO]: Mapping pointer 0x2b875cb28000 for I/O.

operation, job_id: 31963.

Server01:

[D 10/08 11:40] server_state_machine_complete 0x2aaab40381d0

 The cluster configuration is as follows:
 - three hosts with ~400Gb ext3 slice each mounted from a SAN via FC
   acting as metadata servers, I/O servers and clients;
 - two hosts acting as clients only.
 - Debian 4.0, kernel 2.6.24, pvfs2 module 2.7.1

 The hosts are connected to each other by gigabit Ethernet. I am
mounting the filesystem on each client-only host from a different
server: is this correct? What is the difference between mounting from
different servers and using one server for all clients?

 Each server/client host instead uses itself as server. Again, would it
be better to use other hosts as servers?

 Last, but not least: have you got any clues on the possible cause of
the error? I checked all the other logs, and are perfectly clean. Also,
pvfs2-ping doesn't report anything wrong.

 Please forgive me if the above questions have already been answered: I
tried searching the mailing list archives but without success...


Thank you very much for your kind attention!
