Thank you. The trove method being used is alt-aio.

In the server configuration there is a 'TroveMethod' option that will indicate which Trove backend is in use.

    I am using pvfs 2.8.2 on OpenSuse 11.3. I compiled using gcc 4.5.0
    I am not sure what backend is being used on the server side? Is
    there a way I can find this out?

    Thanks,

    So I can re-create the issue:
    1) what version of OrangeFS, OS, etc. are you using?
    2) what IO backend are you using on the server side (alt-aio or
    directio)?

    Thanks,

        Hello all,
        I have a program in which 2 threads write data to a pvfs2 fs
        using the writev function. I am seeing an incorrect file size
        after the writes are done.

        This is what the program does:
        - Spawn 2 threads using OpenMP. Thread0 will write to file
        test1.out, thread1 will write to file test2.out
        - In a single writev call, each thread writes an iovec array
        of 512 elements, each element of size 1M. So a single writev
        call writes 512M data. This cycle is performed twice in
        total, so each thread writes a file of size 1G.

        Once the program finishes, I see that the two files created
        are of size 512M each, instead of 1G. I ran this program on a
        local hard drive, and it works fine.

        I have attached the program here. Any help is appreciated.
