Ricardo, what version of PVFS2 are you using? Without getting into the underlying data structures, you could use the binary pvfs2-touch with its "-l" option to list the desired BMI address where you want your blocks stored. ex:
pvfs2-touch -l tcp://server001:3334 /mnt/orangefs/testfile You can then use the pvfs2-viewdist binary to verify your layout. ex: pvfs2-viewdist -f /mnt/orangefs/testfile If you want to know more about the current underlying data structures, please let us know.
