Hi all, I'm a freshman to PVFS and I would like to build it on the Amazon EC2 platform. One question bothers me for a while is that, I have to use the pvfs2-genconfig interactive script to generate configure files for my virtual machines. I think it would be better if I can modify a configure template automatically with **sed** or something else, 'cause the IP address and hostname change every time when I start the instance. I start the machines and restart them frequently.
Since the pvfs2-fs.conf is a plain txt file, I can understand most of the lines by guessing. However, I found the MetaHandleRanges has something wired, as following: ---------------- Range ip-10-17-18-247 3-2305843009213693953 Range ip-10-17-20-3456 2305843009213693954-4611686018427387904 --------------- I don't know how to generate the large numbers behind the hostname in each line by hand, defining the range of my I/O servers. Any idea? Thank you! p.s. I'm using the PVFS-2.8.2 and the linux kernel version is 2.6.35.11. But I don't think it matters to this question ;-) -- Mingliang Liu (刘明亮 in Chinese) PACMAN Group, Dept. of Computer Science & Technology Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China Tel: +86-136 1126 4251 (Mobile) Email: [email protected]
