Re: [gpfsug-discuss] GPFS, LTFS/EE and data-in-inode?

I suppose the distinction between data, metadata and data IN metadata could be made. Whilst it is clear to me (us) now, perhaps the thought was that the data would be encrypted even if it was stored inside the metadata. My two pence. Richard From: gpfsug-discuss-boun...@spectrumscale.org

Re: [gpfsug-discuss] 'mmces address move' weirdness?

I think it's intended but I don't know why. The AUTH service became unhealthy on one of our CES nodes (SMB only) and we moved its float address elsewhere. CES decided to move it back again moments later despite the node not being fit. Sorry that doesn't really help but at least you're not

It's crappy, I had to put the command in 10+ times before it would work. Just keep at it (that's my takeaway, sorry I'm not that technical when it comes to Kerberos). Could be a domain replication thing. Is time syncing properly across all your CES nodes? Richard -Original Message-

I would have thought this would be fixed by now as this happened to me in 4.2.1-(0?) – here’s what support said. Can you try? I think you’ve already got the relevant bits in your .cfg files so it should just be a case of copying the files across and restarting pmsensors and pmcollector. Again
