Hi all,
as it happens very often the problem sits about 30 centimeters from
the monitor (thanks for that, Volker)!
I incorrectly assumed that i can access the same directory on a GPFS
file system from two different nodes. As such my current "problem" is
solved. Currently we have to isolate access to a directory on GPFS to
a single node.
My next steps would be to setup CTDB and SAMBA on AIX. But the
documentation is not suited for a AIX install as it is very linux
based. I would be willing to cooperate to build the documentation and
a reference installation for AIX.
How about you, Bill? Shall we give it a try?! ;-)
Indeed I would. :-) I have passed some patches back upstream for AIX,
but I am completing a test for broken libgpfs.a before they can be
included. In the meantime, I've been successful with a
pware53{-64}.clustered-samba.rte 3.3.4.0 (32- and 64-bit).
I can work on the 3.4 version later today since my patch set is against
this level. I'm finishing up an AMP refresh I can't wait to get off my
plate. :-)
Cheers,
Bill
Kind regards
Volker

No idea without logfiles.
Just to make 100% sure: The "path=" you're pointing to is
different from the 3.0.26a node, right? Otherwise you're
forcing your users to destroy their data. You might want to
take a look at ctdb.samba.org.
