but isn't there a forum vs a message list, anyhow... I just don't see in the documentation how to build one large file system across multiple systems I need PB filesystems.
I have two system to play with each with about 36TB on them and I want one large filesystem. I have /dev/sdb on each for msg and 4 8TB luns on each for a file system /dev/sdc, sdd, sde, sdf Since this is ext2 it's EXTREMELY painful to format these and trial and error is a pain. I got one 36TB filesystem on one system and mounted to both but I want to wipe that out and put them together. Can do the same thing on both system but how do they know to put there together into one big 72TB vs each having a 36TB filesystem. Will this just work because of the mgsnode if they are pointing to the same node? Start this on both nodes and go home for the day? mkfs.lustre --fsname datafs --mdt --mgs --reformat /dev/sdb mkdir -p /lustre/mdt/data1 mount -t lustre /dev/sdb /lustre/mdt/data1 mkfs.lustre --fsname datafs --ost --reformat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/sdc mkfs.lustre --fsname datafs --ost --reformat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/sdd mkfs.lustre --fsname datafs --ost --reformat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/sde mkfs.lustre --fsname datafs --ost --reformat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/sdf mkdir -p /lustre/ost/data1/0 mkdir -p /lustre/ost/data1/1 mkdir -p /lustre/ost/data1/2 mkdir -p /lustre/ost/data1/3 mount -t lustre /dev/sdc /lustre/ost/data1/0 mount -t lustre /dev/sdd /lustre/ost/data1/1 mount -t lustre /dev/sde /lustre/ost/data1/2 mount -t lustre /dev/sdf /lustre/ost/data1/3 mkdir -p /lustre/data1 mount -t lustre [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/datafs /lustre/data1 _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.clusterfs.com/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
