We want to reconfigure our lustre for multi-homed network. However the mgs only appears to respond to clients using the original network (o2ib).
Here is the kernel module (modprobe.conf) line > options lnet 'networks="o2ib(ib0),tcp(eth0)"' When mounting lustre on the new (tcp) network, we see the following syslog messages: > kernel: LustreError: 10899:0:(events.c:454:ptlrpc_uuid_to_peer()) No NID found for 10.2.1...@o2ib > kernel: LustreError: 10899:0:(client.c:58:ptlrpc_uuid_to_connection()) cannot find peer 10.2.1...@o2 ib! > kernel: LustreError: 10899:0:(ldlm_lib.c:321:client_obd_setup()) can't add initial connection > kernel: LustreError: 8819:0:(connection.c:144:ptlrpc_put_connection()) NULL connection > kernel: LustreError: 10899:0:(obd_config.c:332:class_setup()) setup lustre0-MDT0000-mdc-ffff81022ea1 cc00 failed (-2) > kernel: LustreError: 10899:0:(obd_config.c:1071:class_config_llog_handler()) Err -2 on cfg command: > kernel: Lustre: cmd=cf003 0:lustre0-MDT0000-mdc 1:lustre0-MDT0000_UUID 2:10.2.1...@o2ib > kernel: LustreError: 15c-8: mgc10.1.1...@tcp: The configuration from log 'lustre0-client' failed (-2). After viewing syslogs and searching mailing lists, it appears the mdt needs to be reformatted to include the new network (tcp) routing to the mgs. We have a combined mgs+mdt. My best guess, the needed command on the mds is: tunefs.lustre --mgsnode="i...@o2ib0,i...@tcp0" dev_mdt The original command to make the mdt did not include the mgsnode flag: tunefs --dryrun -l dev_mdt > Reading CONFIGS/mountdata > > Read previous values: > Target: lustre0-MDT0000 > Index: 0 > Lustre FS: lustre0 > Mount type: ldiskfs > Flags: 0x5 > (MDT MGS ) > Persistent mount opts: errors=remount-ro,iopen_nopriv,user_xattr > Parameters: mdt.group_upcall=/usr/sbin/l_getgroups Q. Is tunefs.lustre command this non-destructive ? tunefs.lustre --mgsnode="i...@o2ib0,i...@tcp0" dev_mdt Q. Do I need to update config on the OSTs for our new multi-homed network ?
